Steering Nervous/Twitchy.

[Transporter]

After a few more days driving, I think I have a different perspective on the issue that is peeving me - thanks. Different DCC settings don't seem to make any difference, but just mask the effect..

I’m not following....

I’ve driven many Tiguans s2 and didn’t notice anything you have described. At what speeds are you driving over the undulations?

Hi All.
I took my car back to the dealer who did a full wheel alignment and found that the Right Toe was -1.1 which was out of spec, so they have now adjusted it to +.7. Now I am not sure if it is a Placebo affect or not, but I do think it has mitigated some of the twitching issues - however time will tell. I think most of the my concerns now revolve around the body roll issues, which get exacerbated by the 20" Rims running at 40Psi not providing any assistance in absorbing the crap road conditions. I drove another brand new dealer car which had the same characteristics as mine, so at least the issue in not my car specific.
Perhaps its time for an Eibach Pro Kit.

Do you really think higher spring rate and a lower ride height with less suspension travel will help?

I found the stock suspension very floaty on anything else but sport, same with the steering wheel. Once you do any mods the front end will lift to the sky on hard acceleration.

Now with the H&R springs i mainly drive in custom with wheel in sport and suspension in normal, rides nice and flat

Which H&R springs did you put in? Just the Sport Spring?

Ones for the Gen2 Tiguan, just over 2inch drop in height
