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,

  • Aaah! Thanks for clarifying Gary. So it's the piggyback unit that's not coping well w the CAI. yes it's a meaaaan lookin CAI man! Haha I've got the APR CAI took me a while to install just cos I was fiddling w some stuff as well and the metal clip for the APR mounting to the front was a little off. But it's quite an easy job. I also hear the *heeesssssssssssssh* when the car is driving like its sucking more air in. It's quite noticeable in the cabin. But nothing like what some claim to increase the 'farting' sound of the DSG changing. I think the 'farting' sound is practically non existent in the Tiguan.

    I've heard my ex-hsemate's Mk5 that is APR Tuned, had the APR CAI and ran an aftermarket exhaust. Daaaamn the farting sound is superbly amazing!! How can we get the TIGUAN to fart like that, does anyone know????? Hhahaha

    • As far as I aware, it has absolutely nothing to do with the intake and is purely the exhaust at play - I think it has something to do with back pressure?

      Definitely a nice looking CAI Gary

      If you ever want to sell off any of your mods just let me know....:p

        This is pretty much it for the exhaust pop, it's more to do with pressure variations than anything else.
        Any catback exhaust should be able to get that popping noise.

        Hoping to find a video of a resonator deleted tiguan to see if it's any different to mine.
        Mine will burble on liftoff from wide open throttle.

                        Hi mate

                        Sorry, no, not in VIC.

                        As tempting as it sounds, I'm holding off for another CAI which will hopefully be available in the not-to-distant future...

                        Spending a bit too much money on the R at the moment, so the Tig will have to wait her turn

                              I believe most diesel tunes bump it up to 125kw at the crank.

                              • I see on Naresh's siggy an R Line 140TDI mentioned... So would that be an entirely different motor to our 103TDI, not just a stronger tune?
