    Jack the car up and put it on the stands so the wheels are not touching the ground.
    Connect the C-Tek battery charger to the battery (without disconnecting the battery). Unless the battery is Optima or similar in design (for starting the vehicle after lets say 6 months).
    After following these instructions, this is what it should look like:

    Our Touareg has the DPF and driven in the city, so far it is fine I check the particle loading and don't expect it to be a problem (should easily pass 200,000km)

    Sharkie, if you remember; what was your average fuel consumption before chipping?
