Verdict
Grand monospace à portes coulissantes, jusqu'à 7 places, vendu en occasion presque uniquement en 2.0 TDI. Caradisiac juge que les défauts de jeunesse (volant moteur, turbo) concernent surtout les modèles de lancement jusqu'en 2012 ; CarVerif et les propriétaires de Fiches-auto signalent ensuite des soucis d'AdBlue, de FAP et d'électronique. Euro NCAP : cinq étoiles en 2010, revues à quatre étoiles lors du nouvel essai de 2019.

You are importing the car to:
Import penalty (malus) in France
- Emissions of the versions in this guide: 143 g CO₂/km (check the value on the car's registration certificate).
- The CO₂ malus follows the scale of the year the vehicle was first registered, in France or abroad (WLTP or NEDC scale depending on its registration certificate).
- For an imported used car, it is reduced by a flat-rate discount based on its age in months (scheme in force since 1 March 2025). The weight malus also applies on first registration in France.
- The malus is zero for a car more than fifteen years old or first registered before 1 January 2015.

Inspection checklist
Volkswagen Sharan II — inspection checklist
Things to check
- Faire vérifier par le numéro de série, chez un concessionnaire Volkswagen, les rappels (airbags, roues) pour les exemplaires de 2015-2016.
- Sur un 2.0 TDI 140 ch, écouter les claquements du volant moteur à froid et essayer l'embrayage (point de patinage, pédale).
- Contrôler le turbo (sifflement, perte de puissance) et l'historique du FAP, de la vanne EGR et du circuit AdBlue.
- Vérifier les portes coulissantes, le toit ouvrant et son joint, le multimédia tactile et la climatisation.
- Privilégier un exemplaire récent (2013 et après) avec carnet et factures, comme le conseille Caradisiac pour éviter les défauts de jeunesse.
Questions to ask the seller
- Les rappels airbags et roues ont-ils été effectués ? Avez-vous les attestations ?
- Le volant moteur, l'embrayage ou le turbo ont-ils déjà été remplacés, et à quel kilométrage ?
- Quelles interventions ont été faites sur le FAP, la vanne EGR ou l'AdBlue ?
Test-drive tip: read the fault codes
A warning light that is off proves nothing: a fault may have been cleared just before the viewing. A Bluetooth OBD2 scanner, plugged in under the steering wheel and read on your phone, shows stored codes and whether all emissions readiness tests have run since the last reset.
