Question !!! How to change, to flush the coolant on volksawgen touareg.

leonstevey says:

Brother if i may ask, why have VW placed the battery in such a very ridiculous place like that and complicate maters? I love this car very much and would like to buy it but thinking of how Germans have made battery replacement to become a very tough task doesn’t make sense, i mean why can’t they simply put it under the bonnet like any other car, soo stupid!!!

Put a battery tender on the terminals.

Dan Donner says:

Nice instruction. Say the battery totally dead… How do you get the seat to slide forward or back?

Ruben Hernandez says:

Nice job sir.

gozer61ify says:

Do you have a video of how to recharge ac system?

endsupremacy2010 says:

There is so many ways to test your battery that I can’t get into it all. I knew when my battery needed a jump start and the next day it was dead. Also, check out my other video on finding your radio PIN.

endsupremacy2010 says:

No, they aren’t a common tool. I ordered mine on amazon.

endsupremacy2010 says:

No, there is a way through the steering wheel functions to turn off the day time running lights.

Hey Buddy!

Super demo. Found the battery in a drained state one morn. Left the interior lites on. No problem, took out my trusty charger, popped the hood and boom…..Where’s the battery.,,,,I settled for the visible terminals. Attached charger and twenty minutes later,,,,I lit off the the ole 3 litre turbo diesel. Prob. solved. Gave the battery location no thought until I was brousing Youtube and saw your demo. Well Gosh darn. There it is. I remember my Dad’s ole 40 something sedan, Same location. LMAO

twinspan says:

Thanks for the video. Your directions where on point. It was an easy change and I’m not the handyman type.


Jackie Winters says:

Very good instruction, keep up the good work, GOD bless you.

Hi, I have question. Does your headlights always stay on no matter what, while the car is running and parked? Reason asking is because this is the case with my car which is also a 2005 touareg. The VW service dept told me this is a set feature on this car.

Cheryl Robbins says:

Question, Can you get that socket set at any auto store? Cause I’m looking at my local stores online and I can’t find them…

Great video, I just replaced the battery on my 04 Touareg today and everything was exactly as you covered it. Thanks, this saved me a ton of hassle.

DavidLonelyman says:

Nice video! So how do I know when my touareg needs a new battery? Also have you heard of the sound system messing up and if so how to fix that?
Thank you

Great video. I’ve already bought a set of 12 point triple squares on Amazon and now I am all ready to go. Have a 2005 VW Touareg V6. Keep making videos; yours are really informative. 2 Thumbs up!

endsupremacy2010 says:

Just put a battery tender on it where I showed the 2 terminal posts for the negative and positive.

gozer61ify says:

I have a question. I’m assuming it is my battery that is dead because I have no power what so ever. How can I move my seat back in forth if I have no power? THanks for the help.

Peter Kovach says:

Thank you VERY MUCH for this video. For the Cayenne, there is a screw holding down the power cables for the electric seat that you have to remove.  Also, you need a TORX.
Keep your metric sockets handy.
I had this die on a Friday. and the dealer is closed all weekend for service, so I was in a major bind.

It took a while, and folks, for a Cayenne S, make sure you have the TORX, but this video is AWESOME and saved my weekend!!! (And about $200 labor at least)
BTW-My battery cost $200

peter hawthorne says:

ha ha , so that is where the battery is hidden. what a great video. thanks very much.

Mike Quesnell says:

Did it,TY for this never changed mine before it was not all that hard with this video

Vv Falcon says:

Очень полезное видео… Thank you very match!!!

endsupremacy2010 says:

You’re welcome. I get a lot of thanks for this video. Mainly because it saves people at least $125 by not taking it to VW. The thanks that I get is what keeps me making videos.

themoffa3 says:

Awesome video! My husband & I just changed the battery. Thanks for the tip on the battery maintainer.
