Tiguan :: 2012 2.0 TSI Trembles Until Gear Goes One Level Down


Mar 19, 2012

I bought a tiguan 2012 2.0 TSI and I think there are some problems with it. First of all, when the car is riding in low rotation, it trembles until the car gear goes one level down. Is it normal or am I driving wrong??? It happens because I do not like to pull down the accelerator hardly. Another think is that the sound frame is kind of loose. I have noticed in other cars that it is normal. Is it?? I tried the 95 octanes petrol and it worked the same way. I went to a vw dealer and did a test drive and I also noticed the same problem. Why does it happen??

Tiguan :: 2012 - Trans Stays In Higher Gear And Makes Vibrating Humming Noise

We just brought home a new Tiguan 2012 Automatic and when we are in Drive (D) and going about 26-30 mph the transmission stays in a high gear (5th) and makes a vibrating hum.

It happens on a flat road when someone is in front of us and forces us to stay in the 26-30mph range.

It feels like it wont drop back to 4th at this speed and is overloaded in 5th. When we give it some gas it will hum and lag even more then finallly downshift.

Tiptronic and Sport seem fine but Drive does not feel normal in this range.

When we took back to dealer at 130 miles on the odometer, the tech sat in on the drive and experienced the symptom. His conclusion was that the car is in its "Adaptive Learning" phase and it should work itself out after about 600+ miles.

Prius (Gen 3) :: 2012 - Low Brake Fluid Level

What are the odds of the brake fluid being low, and not being indicative of a leak, in my new-to-me 2012 prius two? It's at the "low" line. The dealer said they put all new brakes on it before they sold it to me as pre-owned & certified, so the low fluid level shouldn't be low because of related brake component wear.

Camry 2012+ :: Low Level Rumbling Noise At 45 Mph Or Up?

2013 Camry SE. I hit a curb pretty hard on the right side. Dealer replaced both tires and wheels and lower control arms on the right front. $2,400. Now I notice a low level rumbling starting at 45MPH or up. Very little change in the noise as speed increases.

I'm wondering if they missed a damaged bearing that is causing this noise? I had the dealer test drive it and they can't seem to hear it.

Prius Plug-in 2012-15 :: What Should Be The Heat And Charge Level

If the following variables are true:

-Extremely cold day out (highs in the single digits)

-Will be hauling around people that like a very warm car

-Will be in a lot of stops and go traffic

Is the best practice to charge only to about 2/3 or 3/4 of the way full (according to the battery graphic on the HSI)? My thinking is the ICE will be running a lot while stopped at stop lights and waiting in traffic. And I might as well have somewhere for all that extra energy to go. I know we are kind of splitting hairs here, but I wanted to think about this situation before it actually came up.

Camry 2012+ :: Windshield Washer Reservoir Fluid Max Level

I just picked up a 2014.5 Camry (my 1st Toyota) and how full the windshield washer reservoir should be at max level. Now hear me out before you fall off your chair from hysterical laughter, if I fill up the reservoir up to the lid like every other car I have owned, after a short drive it will go down and be below the filler neck, clear down under the fender even though I haven't sprayed the washer fluid.

I haven't seen any fluid dripping but I believe I have a leak. Sounds pretty cut and dry but I'm asking just incase Toyota has a weird fill level on the washer reservoir.

Sonata I45 (YF - 2011+) :: 2012 - Erratic Fuel Level Indication

My 2012 Sonata has the erratic fuel level indication. I've read enough posts here to pretty much assume I need to replace the sending unit.

I could go with OEM, but it seems this has plagued Hyundais for many years and across many models.

While I have the (fuel pump, filter & sender) assembly out (of the tank), when (miles) is it recommended to replace the fuel filter?

Phaeton :: Level Fault Workshop - ABS / ESP Lights On When Put Car In Gear And Start Moving

One of my issues is a "level fault workshop" message and abs/ esp lights that only appear once I put the car in gear and start moving.

The car does seem to raise and lower normally and there doesn't seem to lose height over night.

To check if it's a particular wheel height sensor, what controller should I scan in vcds? Nothing related to suspension came up in my full auto scan.

I did have an intermittent brake light switch code, could that generate the level fault?.

Suspension - Chevrolet - Equinox :: 2012 - Engine Noise Which Turned Out To Be A Low Oil Level

I bought a 2012 certified preowned Chevy Equinox with 50,000 miles. After I drove it for 3,000 miles I had to take it to the dealer due to an engine noise which turned out to be a low oil level. They changed the oil and then told me that it's normal for these engines to burn a lot of oil. I drove it for 2,000 miles after the oil change and the oil level was low again. I took it back to the dealer and they topped off the oil and told me to come back after 1000 miles for an oil consumption test.I don't know much about cars but burning through that much oil does not seem normal to me.My question is, how can I make the dealer take responsibility for this car oil issues while it is still under warranty?Is it normal for these engines to consume high amounts of oil and for me to keep replacing about 3 quarts every 3,000 miles?

Tiguan :: 2010 - Pops Out Of Gear

Today was the second time it happened. The first time I let it go.I was braking around a bend for the onramp of a highway when halfway through, I went to accelerate to start getting on the highway when the car wasn't in gear anymore. I hear the RPM's going from 3-5, and checked to make sure the car was in Drive. I thought quickly to put it in sport mode and was able to get on safely. After a couple of seconds I put it back in Drive and it was fine. I made an appointment, but the quickest one I could get was next week.

It's a 2010 Tiguan.

My worry is that they won't be able to replicate it once it's in their possession.

Tiguan :: Holding 3rd Gear During WOT Run In A Tiptronic

I have a 2009 Tiguan 4-Motion 6x Tiptronic.

I was trying to get some data looged using my VCDS cable. APR requires me to do a 1500 rpm rolling start in 3rd gear all the way to red line/fuel cutoff - WOT all the way.

I accordingly put the gear in Tiptronic mode and then try as I might, the second I mash the pedal @1500rpm, my Tiggy downshifts into 1st and cycles its way thru 2nd and 3rd @ around 6400rpm.

How do I do a WOT run while getting the Tiggy to HOLD 3rd gear all the way - no automatic downshifts and up-shifts?

Tiguan :: 2012 - TPMS Light Came On

My wife's TPMS light came on yesterday, I checked the tire pressures this AM and set them all to 38psi, one wheel was down a few PSI, and went for a drive. everything seems fine.

TPMS light is still on, this is a canadian trendline w/4motion.

I do not have MFSW but I do seem to have the full MFD. The manual says to reset via the settings menu which I cannot access. no combination of button pushing on the cluster or control stalk will give me the settings menu. I do not see a button in front of the shift lever or in the glove box like other models have.
