What is common between Touareg and Cayenne?
I was driving behind a Touareg and found myself wondering what is shared between the two? I have never driven one or done a side by side comparrison.

for specific part replacement or just curiosity? Not sure of specific parts but there are many articles out there that discuss the co-development of the basic SUV idea and creation of a primer and then Porsche put their "re-desgin" and "re-engineering" teams to work so their was merely similarity not identicalness. (is that even a word? 
)

The basic body structure is shared. The transmission, most driveline and suspension components are shared. The Cayenne gets a hand built V8 vs the regular Audi V8 in the t-reg. The Cayenne gets a different torque split for the t-case and unique suspension calibrations.

The V6 was a co-developed engine and then the Porsche engineers went to town on it to make it "theirs". More power, tq, displacement, and best of all........exhaust note.
