I would like to read/hear a bit more on your HPP which may be close to AWD and subaru.
Keep us posted, will be very keen to see the new product.

Actually if you had researched it you would have found in the original Tiguan press releases they talk about the AWD structure of the car not being constant AWD and for that matter 4Motion is not always 50/50.

Info has been on this site since January here http://www.vwwatercooled.org.au/newf...ad.php?t=24420

Yes it can be misleading to say 90/10 is AWD but all wheels are driven so tecnically it is ???? (even I think its misleading) the only permament 4WD in the VW range is the Touareg that has 4XMotion.

I guess it can be modified to suit with Haldex HPP but at the end of the day from what I now read it is a good system and can contribute to more stability on and off the road. I am quiet sure it is a lot better that the current xtrail in terms of stability.

It is a lot better with the Haldex HPP. Well worth the money.
