About

I’m Charles, helping you keep your VW/Audi out of the shop and on the road. I’m a Master Certified Volkswagen Technician with over 20 years of hands-on experience fixing VWs, mentoring new techs, and sharing real world advice you won’t find in a manual. On this channel, I show you how to tackle everything from full engine rebuilds and tricky diagnostics to basic maintenance you can actually do yourself. I break it down step by step so you can build skills, save money, and keep your car running right. Whether you’re a mechanic, thinking about becoming one, or just want to know what’s going on under your hood, you’ll find straight talk, detailed repairs, tool reviews, and stories from the shop. Subscribe for videos that show the real side of car repair, not the sugar coated highlight reel. Head to HumbleMechanic.com or check out my social links below to stay connected.

Video Description

The VW Touareg and I have spent many many hours together. Some of that time was great, other times were a real struggle. I really learned how to be a technician because of the Touareg and all the problems that it had. There are many reasons that the VW Touareg was such a nightmare for customers and techs. That being said, if the Touareg never happened, I would not be nearly as good of a mechanic as I am today.
