Expert Reply:
For your 2015 Volkswagen Touareg I recommend the P2 # 90885. It is our most popular brake controller because it is easy to set up and use and it is reliable.
Installation of the controller on a Touareg requires some special steps. I have included a link to a help article that explains what you will need to do to install the controller on your Touareg. There are a few wiring connections that will need to be made under the dash to install the controller.
