Fully reconditioned Touareg Head 3.2L.

The 3.2L V6 engine in the Volkswagen Touareg is a naturally aspirated petrol engine that provides a balanced mix of power, reliability, and efficiency for the first-generation model of the Touareg (produced between 2002 and 2010). Here’s a focused look at this specific engine:

1. Engine Specifications

  • Displacement: 3.2 litres
  • Configuration: V6, with a 60-degree V-angle between the banks of cylinders.
  • Valvetrain: DOHC (Dual Overhead Camshaft), meaning two camshafts per bank of cylinders, one for intake and one for exhaust, for more precise control over valve timing.
  • Compression Ratio: 11.3:1, which is relatively high for a naturally aspirated petrol engine, enhancing efficiency and power output.

2. Fuel System

  • The 3.2L V6 engine uses multi-point fuel injection (MPI), which allows for better fuel atomisation, more efficient combustion, and generally better fuel economy compared to older systems like carburetors.
  • Designed to run on premium unleaded fuel (typically 95-98 RON), which is standard for European petrol engines designed for better performance and longevity.
