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,

    Can anyone else confirm if this is the case? Are these now standard?

    I think the prices are the same. Although they are including things such as; Bluetooth and MDI as standard.
    That's what the dealer told me, too: Bluetooth and MDI as standard.

      Bluetooth and MDI standard across range

      Only the 132tsi pacific model has the extras instead of DSG

          2012 Tiguan Review

          Comment


          • Love it how all the reviews and articles all refer to "new" engines in the 2.0TSIs ..... idiots ....

            The "new" 2.0TSI Tiguans all still have exactly the same engines as the "old" Tiguans, the ECU's have just been tweaked a bit .... essentially a mini remap just like aftermarket tuning .....

            Also, always funny as to how the 155TSI now have the GTI Mk6 engine, which it has always had, even before the MK6 GTI was released 147TSI and 155TSI is mechanically identical .... and still not realising/mentioning that ALL the 2.0TSIs are in fact identical mechanically....

            Are these journalists really that ignorant or do they just believe the BS VW is feeding them without checking the facts ......

            Apart from that, I do like the new front end more than the old 1. Still a brilliant small SUV and with BT and MDI now standard across the range even better.

            Best buy at the moment IMO is the 132TSI Pacific Manual ....
            Current: 2023 MY23 T-Roc R Lapiz Blue + Beats Audio + Black pack 2018 MY19 Golf R manual Lapiz Blue + DAP) 2018 MY18 Golf 110TSI (150TSI) Trendline manual White2014 Amarok TSI Red (tuned over 200kw + lots of extras) 2013 Up! manual Red 2017 Polo GTI manual Black Previous VWs and some others ...

              This is the one I'm trying to convince the wife on. Although the 118TSI is a tempting choice as we don't really need AWD and could use the cost saving to upgrade to a leather interior. We have leather in our Odyssey which takes a hammering from the kids.

                  Sounds like a nice combo.
                  I would go with H&R since they have been proven on vortex by the owners.

                    Sounds good should get leather too.

                    I got a call from my Dealer and my Tiguan 103TDI has arrived at the yard however it will not be ready till next Tuesday
                    as I have the full protection package and many accessories that require fitting.

                    Apparently the dealerships demo arrived on Monday but is in the basement till saturday.

                    • I got some calls today also. All current 155 TSI's with sunroof have leather and sat nav apparently so you might not get what you want in that respect. 47k sounds good though.

                        I got a call, too. My Tiguan 103TDI is good to go, but I won't be able to grab it until Saturday. Can't wait!

                          sounds good. I hope you don't have to wait long for your order. I was told xenons could be as late as June 2012 with a 155 so I have decided on sat nav leather and panoramic roof that I can get this month.

                            Spinman, I'm looking at 'upping' my spec to the same configuration as can't get what I want when I want it. What have you negotiated for the 155, metallic paint, s/roof, leather and sat nav? and what colour selction did you have? PM me if you can. I'm interested to find out prior to tomorrow.

                              Sent you a PM re spec and price. I was only looking for Candy White so did not ask bout other colours
