view full answer... - Brake Controller Recommendation for Volkswagen Touareg that Bypasses Install Complexity
- Yes, the tech bulletin you referenced (which I linked) does apply to your 2013 Volkswagen Touareg for installing a brake controller. That would be why your local shops are a bit leery on the install.

I also attached a link to an install video.

view full answer... - Trailer Hitch and Wiring for a 2012 Volkswagen Touareg
- Usually when a Class III trailer hitch is not rated for use with weight distribution it is because the vehicle itself is not rated for weight distribution. Check the owners manual for your 2012 Volkswagen Touareg to determine if it can use weight distribution.
Even if the vehicle can use weight distribution you are still limited to the capabilities of the trailer hitch used. In this case none of the hitches for the 2012 Touareg can be used with weight distribution like you said.

- It's actually pretty simple to add brakes to a trailer, especially if you already have a welded-on trailer brake mounting flange which should be present on all 3,500 lb axles.

view full answer... - Tire Chain Recommendation for 2013 Volkswagen Touareg with 19 Inch Rims
- To choose the best snow chains for your 2013 Volkswagen Touareg we will want to consider the tire size in addition to the rim size. For the 2013 Touareg, there are 2 popular tire size that fit 19 inch rims, 265/50-16 size tires and 265/55-19 size tires.
