WE PURCHASED A VW TOUAREG 2005, IN MAY 2005, THE REAR CENTER SEAT BELT IS JAMMED AND CAN NOT LIFT UP REAR SEAT WITHOUT CUTTING THE SEAT BELT. VW SERVICE HAS HAD TO CUT THE SEAT BELT TO BE ABLE TO PUT THE SEAT BACK UP. THIS HAS OCCURRED THREE TIMES 3/1/06, 4/10/06 & 6/9/06. THIS OCCURS EVERY TIME WE PUT OUR SEATS DOWN TO LOAD THE BACK WITH STUFF, AND THEN TRY TO PUT THE SEAT BACK UP INTO SITTING POSITION. *NM UPDATED *JB

AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, 60-75MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL SHAKES DRAMATICALLY. DEALER RE-BALANCED, STILL SHOOK. DEALER REPLACED EAGLE LS2'S AT 32K MILES WITH SAME TIRES AND ROAD-FORCE BALANCED...STILL SHOOK. BASED ON OTHERS WITH SAME PROBLEM, I RECOMMENED THEY TRY GY LATITUDES...ALONG WITH ROAD-FORCE BALANCE AND NITRO FILL, SHAKING HAS BEEN GONE FOR PAST 15K MILES. BUT THIS IS A REPEATABLE EVENT ON FLAT/SMOOTH ROAD SURFACES, AT SPEED. MANY DEALERS APPARENTLY UNABLE TO CORRECT, BASED ON FEEDBACK AT VARIOUS TOUAREG FAN SITES (VW VORTEX, CLUB TOUAREG, ETC.) SEEMS TO IMPACT TDI LUX (MY TRIM) MORE THAN OTHERS, FROM 2011-2013. *TT
