Hi All,

Thought it might be easier to sign up and post than read threads and threads of info.

I have had my MY17 TDI Alltrack since new, and was looking for a new car. Something offroadish but didnt want to go full crazy cause we only have 1 family car.

So now...

Can someone give me an idea of when the rear brake shoes need replacing on my 2L Amorak Auto highline. I have done 150,000km, so starting to think they may be getting low. No off-road use however and not a lot of heavy breaking. Front pads changed at 70k and still OK at 150k with bendix pads.

Picking up a new Amarok in a few weeks time. Interested in making it handle as car like as possible, I won't be doing any off-road adventures in it.

Just got my first VW, a 2013 Alltrack with sports option. Loving it so far! It’s my first diesel too so learning a lot. Joined up to see what’s possible with Alltrack tuning and off-road limits. Previous car is an 2002 Audi A4 Quattro sedan, 1.8t.

Finally finished getting the beast setup to use off-road when the opportunity presents itself. Ended up looking a lot better than I had hoped for.
So here is what I have done.
1. Secondhand 20" VW Mountain rims which I got off gumtree which had been painted black with Nitto Terra...

Hi all, I am the proud owner of an Amarok 2.0l 8spd auto Core Plus. Found the forum after a google search and can't wait to talk Amarok off-road with you all!

Has anyone upgraded their OEM tyres for some more off-road biased tread?

Or added 12.5mm spacers to their shocks?...

Some info on the new Adventure:
Volkswagen Tiguan Adventure on sale from $43,990

At least this allows future Comfortline buyers looking at upgraded headlights to get them without going up to the Highline.

Small changes but looks good!

Skoda Australia have posted a revised brochure on the Skoda Yeti web site. The most significant changes I can see are:

1. Three additional colours are available (Malachite Green, Terracotta Orange and Rosso Brunello)
2. Off-road technology ("Hill Start Assist, Hill Descent Assist, and off-road modes

We got off road tech but haven't had the chance to test yet. Does it really make much of a difference to the Tigs ability?

Anyone else used it?

Hi guys.

So I've done a bit off off-roading with the Tig, and learned along the way that I needed more precautionary equipment to improve my chances of recovery if I do something silly. I also tend to camp when I go off-roading, and there's come camping extra's I'd like to always have...

G'day all,
With more Tiguans being "tested" offroad, I thought I would ask if there is anyone that has attached a recovery hook to their vehicle in case it needs to be "rescued" ?

You know something like this perhaps where a snatch strap can be attached and...

We went to McLaren Vale today to visit some wineries and soon found out that if you take the roads that are signed "no through road" or are no through roads on the Nav, they often are connected to other roads, but by sand, not bitumen or dirt. We found a few that were really fun, and 1 I would...

Seeing as the Tig is a soft-roader I am keen on doing a little off-road driving. Not heavy 4x4'ing as I have no such experience, but some firebreak and light-ish off-roading is appealing.

Reading up this post it seems Yalwal wouldn't be a bad idea: http://www.4wdmonthly.com.au/forum/...

Hi,

I'm a 103 TDI Auto driver from Australia and was wondering if anyone had taken there Tiguan Off Road yet? In particular on the beach.

I'm interested in driving to the likes of Stockton Beach where the sand is quite cut up on the entrance to the beach. I know there might...
