Frequently Asked Questions
What is included in the kit?
Five manganese steel skid plates — engine, transfer case, two fuel tank plates, and rear differential — plus all mounting hardware and installation instructions.
Why two fuel tank plates?
The Touareg runs dual fuel tanks, so the kit includes a plate for each rather than leaving one exposed.
Manganese steel or aluminum — which kit should I choose?
Manganese steel work-hardens on impact and is the better choice for serious rock crawling and repeated heavy strikes. The aluminum kit is lighter and better suited to overlanding and moderate off-road use.
Do I need to drill or modify the vehicle?
No — every plate is direct bolt-on using factory underbody mounting points, with instructions included.
How long does the full kit take to install?
Most owners complete the full kit in a single afternoon with the vehicle on a lift or ramps.
