    Fill your radiator with harp seal tears.

    Only use mermaid sweat in your washer reservoir.

    And only ever use unicorn farts in your tyres.

    Scale builds up when water boils.

    Your coffee machine might need descaling every few months to remove buildups. That’s a machine that is boiled 3-4 times a day.

    Coolant warning

    Coolant is made up of a large percentage of water.

    Battery warranty claim denied

    Hi DBO,

    I notice you work with DC electrics so please don’t take this as a suck eggs explanation.

    I also notice you have a BlackVue dash cam and that you use parking mode.

    The reason I’m...

    All Windows Opened Automatically

    Yes. If it’s programmed too.

    I haven’t done this particular coding myself but I have seen it out in the web of things.

    Edit. Found it already. Have a read here. Looks pretty straightforward....

    Another option.

    Code the car, with VCDS, to use the rain sensor, for the windscreen wipers, to close all the windows if it detects rain while your parked.

    This is not correct. The large plates are available at no cost with the white background and a $400 cost to “remake” the front plate.

    Custom plates are when you pick the numbers and pay an annual fee for the privilege.

    It may have changed, but the situation a couple of years ago when we bought ours was that the large Euro front plates were only available with the white background.

    Tow Bar for the Tiguan

    It could still be a coding issue. I’d go down that path before blaming the towing module. It could be the module, but I’d check the coding first.

    In any case, it’s still under warranty. I’d try it...

    Yes. And there’s even a dedicated button for it. It just won’t work until it’s activated with VCDS. At least that was the case with our MY18 model. Common sense may have prevailed.

  14. What is the best style of number plate for the Tiguan ?

    Paint. And some glue.

    Many have successfully removed the offending black stuff. Go for it. It looks horrible otherwise.

    The black foam is still under the rear plate. You won’t have to remove it with the euro plate as it’s designed to fit under it.

    I’m guessing white R-Line then?

    There were some black stormtroopers (management).

    We have a white R-Line and went with the black background Euro plate. Large front and rear. They look great.

    The Tig number plate holders are made for the full sized front and rear euro plates. We have them on ours and they fit very neatly on the car.

    When I wash the car I leave the key in the armrest. The car won’t lock with the key inside so it avoids all those lock/unlock moments. It can be good for the solenoids either. I’d imagine they...

    No troubles with the new cable on older cars. Only issue is it’s limited to 10 VINs unless you pay for the professional licence which, I think, is $100 more. No worries if you only tinker with your...

    Thanks mate.

    Yep, it’s looking more and more like the issue is the Hayman Reece bar, and possibly a lack of towing module and coding. A combination of which has the sensors confused.
