Hey guys
I’m actually a Tiguan owner, but posting here as I suspect the Golf forum gets more traffic!
I have factory 18” wheels on my 2021 Tiguan (purchased a few months ago). I’m looking to...
Hey guys
A while back I posted about a plan to update my brand-new Tiguan’s 18” wheels with a set of new 19” genuine VW wheels I’d found at a tyre centre in Sydney.
Of course, by the time I...
Or a case of turnips even!
Hey man,
Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
Right now I have Pirelli Scorpion Verde tyres (235/55R18) - they are a high end tyre from what I gather, and they do get an AA grip rating.
I’m...
Hey Lucas
Basically, they were advertising the 19” Tiguan wheels as “used”, but this place gets a lot of guys coming in with brand new cars and putting bigger wheels on them… so when I asked, they...
Thanks Lucas.
It all feels a bit fishy here at the tyre centre. The guy is cagey about tyre age - when I asked how old the Continentals were, he said “oh, not too old, a couple of years”.
I think...
Hey Lucas
Great advice - and really timely too.
The wheels looked good, but the tyres were manufactured in week 10 of 2016. So over 5 years ago. I suspect too that they had come in with the...
Hi guys,
Following up from a previous post, I’m updating the wheels on my 2021 Tiguan Life from the standard 18s to 19s.
The tyre shop selling the 19s has a particularly good price on a set of...
Thanks! Something to think about - I don’t want the ride to become too firm, but I do like the idea of sharper turn-in with the 19”s. I guess I need to find the right compromise point.
Thanks man. Always find your feedback valuable. Cheers! Mike
Hey guys
I have a recently purchased Tiguan Life - 1.4T. It’s the base model here in Australia and therefore it doesn’t have any sort of adaptive or adjustable suspension.
The car came with...
For sure!
Still keen to get it sorted out the best way possible so it’s not staring up at me every time I open the door! :-)
Thanks for your thoughts on the best approach. Definitely overkill to repaint the door!
Hey, thanks for the advice! Sounds like a good way to go. Cheers! Mike
Hey Hillbilly, yep - you’re right. Here are a few images. https://www.vwwatercooled.com.au/forums/images/imported/2021/10/60fd5c2aa8d9d6fcef56d884490d7522-1.jpg...
Hey guys
I’ve just had my brand new Tiguan in with a VW dealer in Sydney to have a few small things checked out, and they managed to put a small scrape / chip in the leading edge of my driver’s...

Thanks guys, appreciate the feedback - you’ve put my mind at rest!

Thanks Hillbilly.
It was a strange oversight as yes, putting on the brake is an automatic response.
Perhaps it’s the result of the button instead of the traditional handbrake… too much...
Morning guys,
Wondering if anyone with way more expertise can help me.
Yesterday I inadvertently didn’t pull up the electromechanical park brake on my brand new Tiguan (6 speed DSG), when...
Thanks guys!

Hey guys
Wondering if the 6 speed DSG found in the 110kw 1.4T Tiguan is a wet clutch DSG? Fairly sure it is, from what I can find online, but not certain.
Cheers and happy Friday!

Hey guys,
Wondering if anyone with a current shape Tiguan (5 seater) has managed to track down a rubber boot liner that works with the boot floor in the lower position?
The VW one only fits...
You definitely couldn’t go wrong with the 132. I think they’re landing in a month or two, but there might be a bit of a wait. I think VW have been inundated with pre-orders.
I feel fortunate to...
