Hello guys, I recently purchased a VW Touran 2014 model - Petrol (IT3) and it is a Japanese import. I did not get the manual with it and do not have service history on it. I would like to know if it comes with a timing belt or a timing chain. Your response will be highly appreciated. Thanks

How did you get on with the colour choice.....did you commit to a particular one?

I would be tempted to try eBay and put a starting price of whatever you think is reasonable. If it doesn't exceed the starting price then it won't sell and nothing lost but at least you'll know what its worth then and can reduce the price next time round or leave open to offers. Alternatively, we buy any car and increase their valuation by 25% or so for a more realistic valuation

I wonder if it is a bumper protector for when you are loading things into the boot and avoids scratching the paint?

4x4 direct are a very good supplier of sidesteps....have used the company before and reasonable prices. Fitting - now that is another ballgame, not the easiest to fit so would entrust a garage to do this

Auxiliary heater I’m not to fussed about it’s just the airbag faults I’m concerned about at the minute don’t have vcds to investigate further just using the ad20 pro. The code it’s giving me is saying the connection under the passenger seat but everything looks to be ok under there so not too sure

Difficult one to source the water getting in. A smoke generator is your best bet and if you want to save money then buy one as useful to have for a variety of uses. See link below for cheap one through eBay: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/175045189596?_skw=smoke+generator&itmmeta=01J8Q2TD01Q82T85KJH2K05RE7&hash=item28c1819fdc:g:bLsAAOSwmSRm8OcX&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAA0HoV3kP08IDx%2BKZ9MfhVJKl9GzdaNeHOwXZ5wldCkX0Zi99YEpQXBsz7B0FU4A07LLT8Yj8wnTJo4VROSMXmpQ4J4BRYLtBSP4%2Bg56i1xsJx%2Bt7rQG3x2X1QKVijjjlTT6mL4HEOEyFR450NXikd2MnT%2BC9wynl2qpmbx29db7%2BtA64D2fiy%2FL3zMBHx8LXQITMCOp9GQZl4QkMbYughjRo48NwhgCItXjNYzltbwYf92sYGHOy%2Fm0XRb107ObXk%2FN9ggkvmTGzSWJcjCvKIJBU%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR5LQ6eLFZA

in a nutshell.....yes thats right a lot of people set it to 20 degrees at all times which is comfortable in summer and winter....any cooler and it can get too cold/hot Also, in winter when the windows are steamed up the switch the system to recycle as this will draw down the moisture from the inside. Don't use recycle air supply in the summer as this can dry out the interior (and passengers) too much and become uncomfortable...switch to fresh air supply

Hi....welcome to the Club That sort of journey is ideal if it is motorway and extra-urban routes. As soon as you put it built up urban roads then thats where the problems start for a diesel engine clogging up.
