Hi guys, just putting this out there to see who in Australia runs ATs on their Tiggy. I know its quite common in the USA however less so here.

PDW Oasis XT...

Do you have a stage 2 downpipe etc? Acoustically is it quiet like stock? I want quad tail pipes and have the stage 2 upgrades but want to retain a quiet car

Sorry I misread TSR as TCU lol...yeah my plan was to remove the TCU tune and go to the dealership if the fault returns

Oh good to know coz my gearbox went into emergency mode for a split second this morning and I have a TCU tune!

Is there a revised part perhaps that I should know about and seek replacement with?

Change everything back to stock if you can. Makes your case stronger!

So with it being such a well known issue, is there any accountability from VW?

Do it, then pending their findings see if VW will do it under good will if out of warranty. If they dont then go to ACCC for advice. With the recent developments with consumer rights for Mazda all...

The guys at Eurotune have just informed me that the water pump has a visible leak. I knew this was a common issue with the old Tiguan. Anyone else have this issue. God sometimes they make it hard to...

Well the 132TSI is a much more practical engine IMO. I also have a 2017 Tiguan however i have the 162TSI. Some say the 2017 Tiguan has the potential for DSG issues though I myself am yet to see this...

As far as I'm aware the brakes and rotors are all the same across all these models. So it should fit over that. You might have slightly have more poke out of the fenders as the Rline has slightly...

It seems on the watercooled forums most members seem to go more for "street" style mods. Lowering, larger rims etc.

The vwvortex forums have a lot of info on running all terrains, doing lifts etc....

Not really other than he had to use my vin number against a parts catalogue. He also checked my towbars part number against the info there and it suggests that it is rated for 200kg download.

Thanks guys, this is all very useful info! Tarmac Engineering are on hols till Feb 6th as it seems but I'll definitely hit them up when they are back and I'm so keen to see how your car performs when...

Well good news guys, I got two stickers on their way from my dealership. The guy looked up my VIN number in their system and the towball download rating on the system had been updated to 200kg...

Oh awesome, definitely going to look at that intercooler. Seems like a very good option at that price point, great find!

Does our engine have different internals to the Mk7 Golf R Engine which has...

Did anyone ever come to a conclusion on this? Is this new 200kg download limit applied retroactively to 2017 tiguans? I'm awaiting a reply from VW Australia myself

Hi guys I'm aiming this question at those who have done Stage 3 upgrades to their Tiguan.

I've got a 2017 162Tsi Tiguan with
- Stage II Tune, Intake/Downpipe upgrades
- TCU Tune
- Rear Swaybar...

Oh awesome, thanks for that info! I'm going to double check with VW Parts tomorrow just to be sure. My Tiguan is rated for a 100kg download on the towball though i actually just last week emailed VW...

Cheetah – Speedy Wheels

All the Wheel/Rim websites I look at seem to specify a load rating. The example above has a max load rating of 730kg.

I'm looking at PDW Oasis XT's which have a load...

Hey guys, does anyone know the actual Load Rating for the OEM Suzuka 20's? Everywhere I look shows the tyres load rating of 101 (825kg) but not the actual load rating for the rim itself. I think I've...

Hi guys I have a 2017 Tiguan that is getting closer to the 100,000km mark in terms of mileage. Just curious as to where everyone else is on the odometer and what (if any) mechanical issues you guys...

I have the Rline, what difference does that make compared to non-rline? Is it the brakes/rotors?
