Hey everyone
I recently purchased a fully loaded ex-VW owned Tiguan Allspace 132. It replaces an F15 BMW X5 30d which was an amazing car but had plenty of upcoming maintenance costs and had also just come out of warranty. So far, enjoying the Tig - it's got more tech and driver aids than the X5 had which is nice.
I've got a few questions that I'm hoping some of you can shed some light on:
1. Is the Auto Hold button a bit finicky? Takes a couple of goes before it actually works every single time.
2. My boot is missing the little torch (I didn't notice this when I got it) and it seems there's no other lighting in there?? Only just discovered this when I had to open the boot in a pitch black carpark.
3. When using Traffic Jam Assist, I can hear heaps of clicks from the steering column, which I assume is the sensors triggers going on/off each time to keep the car driving and stopping? Last week I started to hear an additional rattle as well which is a bit annoying - anybody else notice these things?
4. Apparently you don't ever need to disengage and re-engage the park brake (it applies automatically). However, it seems that mine disengages automatically when leaving, but doesn't re-engage when I get to my destination.
Anyways, so far so good but noticing a few little quirks as the weeks go by!
