Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • Touareg key with other models

    Hi Folks,

    Hoping someone with some tech knowledge can comment. I am pondering if it's possible to program a Touareg key (new 2013+ model) to use with my new Tiguan (mk2, 2017).

    My partner and I each got a new Tiguan and I am looking at ways to differentiate our keys beyond using silicone or metal covers.

    The Tig has Kessy and as such no physical ignition barrel so the shape of the Touareg key makes no difference.

    Thanks in advance.

    First world problems mate!
    You lucky bugger, owning two Tiggies

    How about some carbon fibre wrap to 'man' yours up a bit:
    VW Tiguan Scirocco Passat 3 Carbon look Key sticker side LED
    Not sure if that is the right model, but you'll get the gist.

      Is there a VW badge on the key ? Maybe get a different logo on one ?

        Key Chains? Or do you both carry *just* the keys?

        If it has an engine or heartbeat it's going to cost you.

          Talk about making a mountain out of a molehill. Buy two different $2 keychains and attach to the keys

          If you have sold the Touareg a nice seller would have handed over all the keys to the new owner

            You misunderstand. The Touareg key fobs can be had for quite cheap from China. We only carry keys, and as it stands they look face similar. I was merely looking for a creative solution.

              We have two "keys" for the Passat and one has the seat settings for me and the other for my wife who is much shorter than me.

              We got given key tags when we bought it Mine has a straight bar hers has a round emblem on the chain No chance of mistaking them

              Cost absolutely nothing and we know they work.
