Volkswagen Tiguan 2017-2020 Questions and Answers

Question 1

Q. Dct or torque converter for hill drive?

Answer

A dual-clutch transmission (DCT) uses two separate shafts with their own clutches for gear shifts: one shaft for odd-numbered gears and the other for even-numbered gears. This type of automatic transmission is purely a performance-oriented transmission that also delivers good fuel efficiency but comes at a penalty of higher manufacturing cost. If a problem arises they are also expensive to maintain. This type of transmission has now found its way on more affordable cars like the VW Polo and the Skoda Octavia apart from their use in sports cars. The DCT transmission with its more complex and seamless dual-clutch mechanism delivers pure performance in gearshifts. The DCT is ideal if you are looking for performance On the other hand, Torque-Converter, this automatic transmission is one of the most common types of gearboxes that can be found on budget as well as expensive luxury cars. Instead of a clutch, this gearbox uses a torque converter to spool up the power and it also has smooth and relatively quick gearshifts. The application for this gearbox is quite widespread. It is found on budget cars like the Hyundai Creta and Skoda Rapid Petrol and also on uber luxury cars like Rolls-Royces. Moreover, we would suggest you take a test drive for a better understanding of performance and driving comfort.

Q. Is the Tiguans ground clearance really low? with 5 aboard will its bottom scrape against speed breakers or big potholes? also what is it wading depth? i live in a water logging prone area and want a car that can put my mind at rest about any surface my car faces.

Answer

Taigun water wading depth is very low. When driving through water of around 6” deep, the car vibrates and you feel like the car underbody has hit some stones. I think the ABS is creating that vibration.

Answer

Definitely more than 5 but less than 8.

Both cars are good enough.

On the other hand, Tiguan Allspace is more fun to drive, it delivers better power performance. It is more stable at high speeds.

Q. I am planning to book a Tiguan which comes with a 4 year warranty now. Does it make sense to also buy a plus 2 warranty? There are rumors that VW might discontinue the model then in that case will I get spares if any thing happens to my vehicle?

Answer

Anyway VW has to import the spares from abroad even now also . So you can buy Tiguan without any hesitation.

Answer

It makes sense since the onus will be on VW to provide the spares and service. Tiguan has less sales in India because it is a 5 seater but it is doing very well in US and Europe, so it will not be discontinued. Inany case the parts for Tiguan are manufactured in Germany and they will continue to do so.
