  • Soundaktor - like it but causing a not so nice vibration/rattling sound when it kicks in from somewhere in the cabin. I know it can be switched off, but can vibration/rattling be resolved

        I am pretty sure they can also alter the intensity of vibration so assuming it is at 70 - 80% if you get it turned down to say 40% that may help with the rattling sound.
        i just had it turned right off and now the exhaustion has worn in the sound is deep and just right for me.

            See Mk2 Tiguan VCDS tweaks page 24, that’s how I did mine.

                    • So, where is the best place to go to get Traffic Jam Assist enabled assuming I don't have a friendly dealer ? Or can it be done thru the OBD port ?

                            Looking good - I had a Lapiz hatch lined up first.

                            I was actually speaking to Dan yesterday and made sure he looked after your R.

                            • Yeah, I really like the Lapiz. Would likely be the colour I'd go for if I end up getting one.

                              The grey doesn't look too bad either, though
