- Today we took our Touareg Off-roading at Uwharrie National Forest! We brought some other german cars with us to see how they performed against each other! ( VW Atlas, Porsche Cayenne, and two other high modded Touaregs) It was a blast!

I understand VW techs really disliked these rigs from all the problems they had back in the day & for good reasons. But almost 20 years on I feel like the surviving example's full potential can finally be realized. Now that they're obtainable for a reasonably low entry fee it makes them more accessible to niche enthusiasts & tuners. Dare I say the 1st gen Touareg/Cayennes are finally coming into their own!? Really enjoyed the video. Will enjoy seeing more of your experience with the Touareg👍 Liked & subd
i agree, lucky enough to have found a low milage 2004 v10 with religious service and repairs and considering the 8000 entry point i engaged in allows me to look forward to repair cost less stressfully.
Buy mine! 😎
Im in Oregon
2004 Blue V8 non-air suspension 146k
Yep, Trex and Cayenne are so capable its the natural +1 aftermarket for offroading and overlanding...
hell yeah i got a v10 tdi for 3 grand a few years ago now you cant even find a v6 for under 10!
Ex V-10 TDI owner here. This is the best Touareg off-roading video on CZcams. Thanks for posting. The surprise of the video for me was how well that Atlas did climbing the 30% hill.
check out some of darkside developments they made an offroad monster beast of a v10. i'm in the process of making an off road v10 tdi as well (other channel meanyheadmoto)
@14:15 - I keep coming back to that F-150 owner's laugh. 😂😂
”One wheel driveeeeee” 😂
I really enjoyed that. Hopefully you do go back, but keep that PCV valve, if you roll over a cliff they'll be able to find you with that whistling. ,,,🤣😂
So happy to see someone is making skid plates for Touaregs! Will be picking one up
It's awesome to see people offroading these things, it's nice to see how capable they are
I love the fact your Spotter is Sporting a beer in his hand whilst you crash down 'Dicky'.... is he doing the Dutch Courage for you guy!!! 🤣🤣🤣
Fook me that Caren was getting serious angles down that 'Dicky' pass!!!! Epic!!!
Awesome!...just when I was thinking about buying a new truck. Love my Touareg but couldn't find anyone making legitimate off road parts. Luckily I have the rear locker...Glad I found the channel. Keep innovating ! Visiting the site now.
I've got am r5 twin locked. It's an absolute machine. A mate of mine has a seriously modified v10 that's twin locked out the factory and he has a front locker as well. Ridiculous how capable that thing is. I swear it looked like it climbed a 90 degree hill (obviously not but it felt like it lol)
It was great to join and film the event. Our footage will be posted soon!
Gents. I dropped a pair of LED H7 low beams in my '05 Touareg. It totally transformed my evening drive experience. Highly recommend this easy mod. The Can-Bus resistor adapters are also recommended. When High Beams fail, I'll replace those with LEDs as well. Huge Difference in visibility. Cheers.
Love the bass earape a lot more than the classic censored sound 😂😂😂
Super video , i really enjoyed that , thank you !
Great video! Love seeing what people are daring to do with their VAG machines now, twenty years on and having depreciated about 90% 😛
Also, I watched one of your guys doing one of my pet hates: waving his arm indicating a right-hand direction whilst simultaneously yelling "LEFT! L E F T !! " X-D
Loved it. Just full send it, haha 😂🤣😂 More Touareg content please.
Awsome seeing these get properly used
Your off-road vehicle tag/handle should be Banshee with all that screaming from the PCV!
congrats!!! that was great!
Such fun videos, thanks again Paul and also kudos to Jack on his TIG!
Am watching closely for info on adding lift to my 2017 AT...
Now, who ARE the guys that did the custom suspension work for VW on the ID4 race test in Baja not too long ago?
Thats the OG hub of VW bugs in Baja, and the next gen application of tech to make the mk7 platform realize its "off-road" and overlanding potential...
Forge is proving the aftermarket interest is there and see B2BFAB for more...
My Touareg V8 made a sound like that once. Turned out to be the gasket sealing the two halves of the intake manifold together.
Awesome video
Put 33×12.5×18 off road tyres on with 20mm spacer, disconnect antirollbar, you will get big smile on your face. Because I have done it on my touareg, perfect.
That PCV, OMG Tears. Reminds me of those little plastic spinner whistles you could buy as a kid
It was painful
Bet there were a couple of Deliverance jokes to be had with that PCV squeal
Loved it!
I’ve handled some trails in my FWD Tiguan that I really shouldn’t have been able to lol. Can’t wait to build a lifted off-road atlas
Killer video
Had our Touareg 14 yrs.. wish I kept it for this, but no 4wheeling around here :( I used to run a lot less air pressure... like 5-10psi. you might want some sway bar quick disconnects too while you are at it. Atlas is more capable than I would have ever have expected.
Ya man I was totally shocked at the Atlas! So cool to see it getting after it! I have mine in order right now and expected Dec 10th and will be doin the H&R struts and springs with some 265/70R17 Mickey Thompson Baja Boss A/T on Fifteen52 wheels! Can’t wait to get her a little dirty!!!! My last VW was a 14 Passat bagger and it never got dirty! Same company different ways man! Groovy shit!
UGGHH!!! This video makes me want to keep my T1 Touareg, but I have to scrap it. Too expensive.
I think the guy with the Atlas had no idea what he signed up for. 😄 . Probably thought that off-road will be just some gravel road
The engine sound of the cayenne is awesome
Can you do a video on the camshaft sensors in the touareg please. I've got one that's got a bad seal but don't have a clue on how to remove them.
i just need the EuroWise mods, that cayenne looks way better than the stock one.
looks like i need to see about smaller wheels/off road tires for my 17 touareg wolfsburg model and see what it will do out here in the desert. as factory it does very well on pavement in the curves and at higher speeds.
That PCV valve is screaming PEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEeeeEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEeeeEEEEEEECEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEeeEEEEEEEEEEEeeeEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEeeeeEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Great fun good offroad trip👍😎👍
Looking forward to,where you go with this car.
This is inspiring! Can't wait to pick up my V10 TDI!
That is a monster
@@dragospahontu I mean it pulled a fucking plane lol
@@kevs2good133 The small print in that TV commercial stated it was modified by way of differential and significant additional weight to enable it to have enough traction to move the plane.
Nice clip!
What tire size do you have on the Touareg?
this. was. awesome.
Guide: Here comes the hard part. Equipped Kajenne: Struggling but climbing steadily Touareg: Was that even a slippery climb? 😮
@10:30 I think your spotter works for an auto wrecker the way he was directing
How did the atlas do/how well did haldex keep up with it's torsen counterparts?
Nice job, wheel a toureg and jeeps here in Colorado. Yep the toureg will surprise (ours has the diff locker) you but it really is no match for Jeeps and things with solid axles. But for normal forest trails and getting to most fishing spots it is nicer then a jeep. Suburas and things without a transfer case would be wise not to follow.
Bro was like woow Wooow WOOOOOW
Should have brought the alltrack in off-road spec.....
That sounds like a great first step for the best off-road experience 🤣..
Doubt Paul would want to damage the alltrack now. Its his daily driver.
It wouldn't clear even lifted in a lot of spots
What engine is in your touareg and which year is it. Great video btw
You should have brought the Alltrack!
That Cayenne is awesome
I used to beat my mark 1 Jetta at lake Raleigh. Learned how to change tie rods as a result. And other stuff...
Hey your not having fun if your not breaking something 😂
the dude yelling directions while having a beer lololol
Amazing I have 2006 touareg 4.2 v8 with 40mm lift 275 65 18 cooper discoverer II bilstein shocks. 152k miles mostly in the coastal mountains of southern California and mohave desert. Dumont dunes, imperial sand dunes, and Sierra Nevadas, white mountains ....... great all around vehicle. Does not compare to my lr3 simple truth.
Saludos desde mexico👍🏼👍🏼
Now youve got me looking at 2008 touaregs...
Brave guy turning his Cayenne into a mountain goat.
All those unibody suvs seriously lack wheel travel. I like both vw and toyota, but for wheeling I'll stick to our 4Runner. I takes very little for the cayenne and touareg to start teeter tottering.
How does the Touareg transmission and transfer case hold up under for real off-road use? Just about every cheap T-reg I see needs a trans and / or some kind of timing chain service-related repair
1st generation gearbox is made in Japan and audi q7 and porsche cayenne use same gearbox. And 1st generation have a separate low gear transfer case, so its pretty durable
What is Your tyresize ?
I'm trying to figure out how 5 people could possibly dislike this video. Jeep owners?
In all honesty, do you really think that was a safe thing to do even by off-roaders point of view? I wheeled that trail that weekend. Not being a stick in the mud, but that was a stupid thing to do. Dislike the video because #1 That bottle in the spotters hand - soda right? #2 The guy almost rolls. He didn't roll due to luck, not driver skill. I know, his vehicle and his life. #3 Had he rolled, it would have closed down one of the most popular trails in that forest on a busy Saturday. #4 Next the forest service would evaluate the area and then probably make changes to make sure it doesn't happen again. = flatten it out and take the fun out out it.
Pointing a vehicle down a hill and letting gravity do the rest is not driving.
@@daverobbins3966 I got to agree with you 100%. It sounds like a killjoy, but nothing worse than when dummies ruin your weekend wheeling plans with shenanigans.
Probably one toyota owner
Probably for the spotter.
Just haters, nothing important.
🦾🦾🦾🦾🦾🦾🍾
I hope you guys haven't been horribly affected by the pipeline spill in Huntersville
Hey, I can’t find anything on a 2013 Audi s4 rear and front differential service. Wondering if you have a video or cam refer me to one. Also very hard to find a service manual for that year.
Drain and fill. Bentley manuals.
I like the 4x4 stuff
How come you guys don't offer a full exhaust for my B6 Passat VR6 4Motion Wagon? I'm forced to buy from CTS Turbo.
Shoot us an email if they offer it still we should be able to get it for you.
@@Deutscheautoparts ok
Awesome
Would never have imagined how well the Touareg and Cayenne do in off road situations. Here in the UK at least I've never seen them do it. Great vid!
Mk7.5 GTE owner. Not sure if you get these across the pond.
I wonder how the atlas did?
Did the Amarok ever come ot the US? would like to see how a decently modded Amarok would tackle that!
We didn’t get them here
"subscribe for more like it" - besides the not normalized audio - do we now get monthly... weekly offroad vids??
me thinks your Touareg has a locking rear diff as you have an extra setting on the left hand switch that my touareg does not have. if there is a small electric motor on the rear diff - its a locker.
Some even have central dif lock
I believe he was showing a video from another treg just to show one with a rear diff, I have rear diff on mine and I believe you have to have air suspension to get it also…all the first gen tregs had center diff locks
Nicee
🦾👊
All the trails I saw in your video.
Could be climbed by a 1000 can am trail in 2wd.
I know it’s hard to believe but it is true.
The speed at climbing is way faster as well.
Stupid fun.Like.slowslow....
turds coming out when the SUV's were up on 2 wheels
Like
it's painful to watch 😭
Who disliked this video are Prius drivers 😂😂
dude spotting is a dick.. rushing people through. Certainly not like any of the guys I have ridden with.
I kind of cringed when you introduced the video...and I watch to see if you survived.
That cayenne looks so unnatural
If this is off-roaring, I haven’t been off-roaring and nobody I know either.
Goddamn posers
Not bad for worst VW ever made lol
Best and worst 😜
It's a damn good off roader, road'r , rr LoL
