The Touareg and Cayenne do use similar front diffs, however the diff ratios for the models vary. Turbo, S and base Cayennes all have different front diff ratios. You will have to find the Touareg with a diff ratio matching your Turbo. I'm not sure that the part number on the diff casing reflects the diff ratio inside, or maybe you are lucky and have picked the right one !

Note that if the bearings are growling, there is an extensive post on the Touareg forums detailing the needed replacement bearings and instructions to fix. Seemed like a cheaper option for a good indy mechanic or advanced shade tree diyer.
