I would like to know how you adjust the headlight height on your Tig. Does it have an electrical control/wheel on the dashboard or are there any different ways of adjusting.
View 9 RepliesI understand this can be done with a phillips screwdriver inserted to the sprockets almost like a gear.
My question is, does turning the driver clockwise move the light up or down?
How do you adjust the rear height on coilovers? I have the ST coilovers which are comparable to the KW. Do I have to compress the spring and then adjust? I tried to do it with the wrenches given but the whole thing just turns with it. I'm going to lower the front some more and I want to do the rear as well. It is my first set of coilovers on a car and I had someone else do the install.

View 1 RepliesI recently lowered my wife's gs350 f sport and was wondering how to adjust the headlight beam? I followed the adjustment screws from the owner's manual and they tried to raise them, but they don't move. I know the headlights are adaptive so the move up and down with a motor so not sure if that is why they don't move with the adjustment screws.
View 10 Repliesmy wife came home today and said that the left rear turn indicator and the right headlight were out on her 2010 tiguan se. Well, upon further inspection I noticed that there is more to it than that. The following lights are out;
drivers side city light
passenger side headlight
passenger side fog light
passenger side turn signal (front)
right rear running light (not the one on the lift gate) inner bulb
running light on the left side of the lift gate
left rear turn indicator
left rear running light (not the one on the lift gate) outer bulb
I've started retrofitting foglights into my mother's 2012 Tiguan (S 4motion). All of the parts were dealer ordered, but twice now they've sent me the wrong switch. The mounting/locking mechanism is the wrong size (too large on the new switches). In addition, the second switch had an "auto" selection.
The original part number was 3C8941431F C1F-T shown on the left here:
The two part numbers they have shipped so far are:
3C8-941-431-G-XSH and 3C8-941-431-E-XSH
I need a standard headlight switch, no auto, with fog (front only is fine).
Headlight switch failure. '12 SEL with factory HID. While in the "Auto" mode during broad daylight, headlights will start to flash on and off. VAGCOM revealed a fault code to the headlight switch. Dealer has already replaced it once and it started again within a few days.

View 1 RepliesHave had my '11 Tiguan with 46K miles on in it into the dealer twice now for this issue. The first time they diagnosed the issue as a faulty control module, ordered one from Germany, installed in and the issue went a way for a while...
Over the past week the problem has come back with a vengeance. The Tiguan would complain that various headlights, fog lights, blinkers and backup lights were out. Sometimes turning on the lights and turning on the high beams would fix the issues, other times turning off the car and starting it again was necessary. Went into the dealership today and the issue was diagnosed as a burned fuse block.

View 4 RepliesSo, last night, a warning light showed up that pointed to a bad headlamp. I have a 2012 SEL with Xenon lights. When I first start the car, they both work. But then after a minute or so the passenger side lamp goes out and the warning light comes on. Each time I first start the car, same thing. Both work, then passenger side goes out. I had Xenon lamps on my 2000 A4 for over 12 years with not a single problem. Though those were not the bi-xenon with the Adaptive auto following lamps.
View 7 RepliesI have searched high and low, and I cannot find how to replace the factory low beam projector style headlight bulb on my wife's 2013 Tiguan SEL. It came with the factory LED style HID lights. There were a ton of videos and how to's for the regular Tiguan headlight replacement, and for aftermarket Ebay LED ones, but I can find anything about how to replace the factory low beam projector bulb, other than "take it to a dealer". My thinking is 'if the dealer can do it, so can I'! There has got to be a way. I can't get the wire bulb retainer loose, or get the bulb out of the headlight housing.

My problem is, is that I can't figure out how to remove the center console!!! The instructions in the Haynes repair manual for removal of the center console are for 2008 and earlier Matrix models.
