Rear Suspension Support Recommendation for 2016 Volkswagen Touareg
Updated 02/16/2026 | Published 02/07/2026
Question:
I have a 2016 VW Touareg TDI that I use to tow a 5000lb travel trailer. I use a weight distributing hitch and have that installed correctly. I still get some sag and would like to add something like sumo springs or timbrens to protect the suspension a bit when towing and when using the car off road not towing. Is there a sumo spring or timbrens unit that will work with my Touareg? Thanks

Hey Lori, yes we do have a SumoSprings kit part # CSS-1094R that fits your 2016 Volkswagen Touareg. This will give you a bit more rear suspension support to get rid of sag when towing. What weight distribution system have you been using?
