1 Steering Wheel Vibrate problem

The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The VIN was not available. The failure mileage was 18,000 and the current mileage 20,500.

2 Steering Wheel Vibrate problem

Failure Date: 01/20/2011

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.
