Expert Reply:
For your 2017 Volkswagen Touareg the Prodigy P2 brake controller part # 90885 would be an excellent choice as it is widely considered to be the best controller that is also very reliable. To install it you'd just need the part # TK22FR which plugs into a factory port on your vehicle since it has the factory 7-way.
The P2 is a proportional brake controller which means that the harder you apply the vehicle brakes the harder the trailer brakes will apply.
