2005 Volkswagen Touareg V8 Start Up, Exhaust, and In Depth Tour

[@9163353259]

I had one of these, broke down like insane, it was a 2004 V8 4.2 model. Came with optional air suspension. Bought it used from a BMW dealer. 2004 with 52k miles. Broke down reliably once a month. Replaced the battery under the driver seat, fan wiring harness melted, steering rack broke completely, air suspension had a mind of its own, and headlights loved eating up the $259 bulbs, which to change you had to disassemble half the front end. But it sure rode nice and quiet.

Typical vw

[@thatonefenderedition]

That exhaust note is glorious.. I wish they made more of these..

[@realitycheque6529]

In my opinion the 4.2v8 was the best version. Lighter in the front end so handled better than the v10. I still have my 2004 and it feels like a new car.

[@bautistap8515]

Luckily my country, Argentina, is one of the few to carry the 4.2 v8 T3 and T4... Looking into those but very few people have reviewed it as that engine is not common

[@pramay5116]

That makes an amazing sound

[@mitchman2100]

The styling on this is so much better than that of the current Touareg.

[@Mandy7D7]

This is such a fun car and one of my favorites out of VW.

[@FerrarifanOls95]

The fierce engine note of that v8 is the main reason why this is my new favourite suv Better start saving up!

[@TravisCyprien]

That V8 engine sounds really awesome. But really great Video Kyle. And nice job on the balance audio on the video sounds really good.

[@lindsaymarie2203]

I got this car before I turned 15 and I love it so much!!😍

[@ibrahimlincolin3133]

Lindsay Marie do you advice me to get one as I'm thinking to buy 2008 model v6

[@Jose1LE]

Ibrahim Lincolin get a v8

[@diego750il]

The exhaust sounds surprisingly good!

[@alextothehbro]

VW Touareg, all engines, including the TDI, have such great exhaust notes.

[@adrianglavas3325]

it also has the option to open the glass on the trunk via the button below the wiper unit :)

[@nattie5330]

This I did not know. Thank you. I've had mine for a year and often wondered how to get that window open

sweater weather by the neighborhood and i stand alone by godsmack. good radio stations up there

Still Love this car

[@Djevan41598]

Something gives me the feeling it has the same Interior and dash layout as the VW Phaeton.

Because of this car, my mechanic knows me on a first name basis. My favourite car of all time, but I don’t at all recommend it

Hello Mr. Kyle. Can you please do the review of the new 2015 Touareg V8 4,2 TDI Exlusive? Thank you. You have the best channel for cars review. Keep going! ;)

[@emiljanorico8564]

[@simonesik2679]

Marko Dinjar he can’t. North America doesn’t carry these engine models.

[@FrenchVries]

Kyle you do know that the engine was not fully warmed up once again. Therefore it's not really good to rev it to 4k rpm..

[@moroit1]

Lots of features misses here, like that the rear glass opens, storage under passenger seat, armrest moves forwards for better support and so on.

[@RusKsu]

I used to have toureg v8, and I lived it, even cried when traded for x5

[@FrenchVries]

I did pay attention to the gauge, but i believe that the gauge just left of the center is the water temperature, which warms up pretty fast. I might be wrong as i don't know Touaregs rlly well but all the way to the left looks like a oil temp gauge. The oil needs to be warm in order to be able to rev the car that high. Which it only will after about 10miles of real driving, not idling.

[@iEatOreoCookies]

That exhaust note is amazing!

[@putrahermanditya5950]

No one's gonna talk about sweater weather playing on the radio?

[@JohnnyGification]

Good videos Kyle. After you do the review of the 1999 Navigator, can you do a review of a 1971 Ford Pinto. Come on people, stop asking. He'll do the car that's next on his list.

[@whirly03]

you dont need to hold the key to start it. just twist and let go..

[@billgreen6938]

Definitely agree with you! The q7 is a beast!

[@vettefreak89]

Kyle next time you come to Houston let us know! I went on Sunday and didn't know where you were. Awesome videos though.

[@pikachu2537208]

This car actually has a nice v8 sound unlike most v8 suv

[@XantoS771]

Found it...looking for this as my first car... :)

[@theboogeyman5736]

did it end up being ur first car?

[@robitaill3]

looks too new to be a 2005

[@ogalief]

+David Robitaille (robitaill3) I know!! It's hard to believe that these were first produced in 2002. That was 14 years ago, and it still they still look like relatively new cars

[@4240cameron]

yeah i coundn't believe this car had a smart key access in 2005!

[@ogalief]

They also had Bluetooth as an option as well

[@robitaill3]

WOW, this thing's just as loaded as a brand new Buick

[@ogalief]

+David Robitaille (robitaill3) I forgot to mention, they also have backup cameras as an option. pretty nice trucks for the time! it aged pretty well

[@razvandobos9759]

Wish we still had these. The Atlas/Teremont is OK, but this one is better.

[@GeoxygenGaming]

We have the V8 version of it in Norway. 340 HP.

[@FrenchVries]

In the US 1 click often just unlocks the driver door, 2 clicks unlocks all including the boot.

[@manndunkel]

cars in america have different central locking. if you press the button once it only unlocks the driver's door. to unlock all the doors you have to press it twice.

[@DancinRandy54]

nice job kyle!! i cant wait for some test drives!!!

[@jaleb1111]

Great review! The smart key must be optional be ours is a six cylinder that was a one owners sub.84k and loving it.I've own Volvo's for twenty five years,but the wife wife saw this at half the price,and it looks great and run great.Thanks

[@affansiddiqui4218]

i love your videos and i think you help alot of people find the perfect car. I also have a suggestion of a car that i think is cool, the Acura Mdx if you dont want to i totally understand your awsome

[@TheMysterydude98]

Did you know that you don't have to hold the key to the right to turn it on? You can just twist it once to the right and it pretty much starts itself.

[@wh7824]

A car that was built in 2005 and has the same technology in most cars that are built in 2018/19.. fuckin ahead of time.

Remember Guys, Kyle's The Real Shit. He knows what he's doing. No Need to question his methods.

[@CoinHuntingDrew]

My neighbor used to have one of these, they had it for at least 5 years and it seemed to be a decent car. Never seen them anymore though. Must have had low production #'s or they were lemons

[@Spring794]

So it has a smartkey access system, but you still have to use the key to start it?

[@cadizv]

acceleration in the v10 is beastly

[@RAJohnson713]

My dad has this car i love it its a beast

[@castironbandito]

I do like this SUV, but i've heard that maintaining one can be expensive. My favorite Touareg is the V10 TDI. The V10 TDI is one of the best engines out there, in my opinion. I may have a hatred for CUVs, but the ones made by Mazda, Toyota, Lexus, Volkswagen, Skoda and Audi are the only CUVs that I like.

[@Gh0sT5531]

dude I drive the v10 touareg and the only shitty thing about it is that my headlights were stolen 3 times ............

[@drMINDdamage]

Yeah... Cayenne's and Touareg's headlights are super easy to steal.

[@jonasbickford7417]

Ghostara wow , never heard of that before ! how the hell does that happen ?

[@jj1201inc]

Is it just me, or do I think the old keys on the old vws, (like this) are really cool?

[@10CIRL]

Since when the keyless system is on the market? very impressive for me seeing an 2005 car with that technology.

[@LandOfTheFreeMediaBlogspot]

Outstanding review there on that Volkswagen Touareg Kyle :) In addition, how's your Labor Day going for you? - Michael Land

[@yamahonkawazuki]

Kyle my friend I knew youd make it. youre a doctor well a Pharm-D, have a beautiful lady in your life, a fine home, nice cars etc. good income from the tube, and from the pharmacy etc. I knew youd do it. and when car lots come calling you versus you calling them you know youre doing it right. ( plus you watch others do a car tour the saabkyle04 way. I remember where it all began. well maybe not where it began, but back in the day you were a "weather kid" Congrats my friend on jobs well done :)

[@timwarheit4908]

Love the channel!! Kyle I know you've been seeing a lot of suggestions for a Veyron, but I have a better idea: The new SRT Viper. It'd be really great if you could do an in depth tour on one. Thanks!!!

Dash board imitates that of a Bentley cool

[@cristoferarro9276]

[@razvandobos9759]

Touareg is Volkswagen's first SUV, introduced in 2002, same year as it's higher priced cousin, the Porsche Cayenne. Shares the same platform as the Audi Q7 and Q8, Bentley Bentayga, Lamborghini Urus, and Porsche Cayenne.

[@calvinwong38]

I like this :) Keep going Kyle!

[@chiizey6319]

It’s sound good too we use to have one be but it was 2006 fully loaded

[@LandOfTheFreeMediaBlogspot]

Kyle said on his Facebook page that he was filming multiple vehicles in Houston, TX at two dealerships, such as South Coast Autos being featured in this video for example (as part of his first ever trip into the state of Texas). So I hope that clears it up. - Michael Land

[@Goldenrod636]

Does the compass only come on when the car is on or is there a button you have to press to make it display?

[@LanuzaFox]

How come it has the keyless/smart key system to enter the vehicle but no keyless ignition?

[@WTFProductionsLtd]

Those are the defrosting vents, Im not 100% sure on what they are called. they pump air through those vents then out a vent on the top of the door to aid in visibility for the wing mirrors. Similar to the defrosting on the front window :)

[@cashburkhead8513]

One of my dream cars

[@Dakyza]

NICE VID KYLE ;) WHEN WE CAN SEE A VID WITH 2014 MERCEDES S CLASS?

[@alf279]

Lol! Smart key access! In an old Touareg! I didn't know that. I have a 2005 Polo 1.4 with the same key btw :DD

[@aaronscorner]

Is it me or is the interior right out of the Phaeton?

[@thatonefenderedition]

Pretty much.

[@FH99]

I think he filmed the Lancer Evo in the background of this video while he was in Houston. Keep your eyes peeled for it.

[@evankainer498]

Hey Kyle I met you at Lamborghini Houston a few weeks ago! Just wanted to know if you did a review from there?

[@sweet00976]

What part are you talking about, it looks brand new?

Hey Kyle, I was wondering if you could do a video on the 1999 Lincoln Navigator. By the way, I love the videos!

[@itbeokay]

WHAT! YOU WERE LITERALLY WITHIN WALKING DISTANCE FROM MY HOUSE!! I wish I could have said hi....

[@ryanyuen7594]

Sounds like my dad’s old 2004 Porsche Cayenne base model engine sound of V6.

[@WTFProductionsLtd]

Ive had a look they are window vents, my fathers Lexus has them in the doors as well

[@dabigj969]

It looks advanced for a 2005

[@op3l]

The smart key system is kind of odd. Having it in your pocket and open the door. But then you'd still have to use the key to start the car. Seems like an extra function that doesn't really do any thing...

[@jacobsilk3574]

Hey Kyle! It would be awesome if you could consider making a video about the Audi Q7. We are tossing up whether or not we are going to buy a Touareg or a Q7. Cheers.

[@LasseSkjttHansen]

Would have been perfect had it been the 5 liter V10 diesel (if you got that in the states), but obviously it doesn't make much difference in the video - which is great, as always ;)

[@reidburford8159]

I think he already did a video on the dart.

[@Lukasdw02]

Maybe they added it so you can use it in case the battery in the remote fob dies, but even without the keyless entry you can still unlock it if the fob doesn't work. So I think the smart key access system is useless on this car. But it's still good car nonetheless.

[@stendak]

I kept watching because you where going to address the differential lock switch in more detail later in the video, you didn't. Locking switch is the info I'm hunting for.

[@ericksanchez7787]

Well all first gen touareg have a center locking diff and had the option for a rear locker

[@razvandobos9759]

Really nice SUV. If I had a Volkswagen SUV, this is what I'll get. A 2019 model though.
