my understanding was that it didn't even make it to the US market the first time. 69 280 SEL 120,000 Miles 72 350SL 108,000 Miles 2004 VW Passat 4 Motion 1999 Mazda Miata -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sat, 21 Jan 2006 16:21:05 EST Subject: Re: [MBZ] Touareg diesel
<< Just heard that VW has released the V10 diesel for the Touareg. Its a 5.0L twin turbo diesel that makes 300hp and 553 lbs of torque.>> Do you mean it's been re-released for the US market? That engine was offered in the Touareg right from the beginning and was pulled off the US market over a year ago because CARB put a hex on it. My friend DM had one on order for a while here in Seattle (replacing his 99 ML) and his order was cancelled by VW. It's still available elsewhere and there have been multiple road test articles in the Euro and UK car magazines. Cut rate Cayenne.
