Questions About 2018 Volkswagen Tiguan Limited’s Transmission

  • What happens if I "ride" my Volkswagen's brakes? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Volkswagen? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how small it is. The added weight can cause issues with your transmission if your vehicle isn't equipped to handle the load. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Tiguan Limited is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • When should I have my Tiguan Limited's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Caring for your Volkswagen Tiguan Limited’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. About every 30,000 to 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your transmission fluid inspected and perhaps changed. Service intervals can vary depending on how you use your Volkswagen, so check with your technician first. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can my Volkswagen Tiguan Limited leak transmission fluid? Yes, your Volkswagen Tiguan Limited can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your Tiguan Limited ages, parts of the transmission system might wear out or break down, leading to a leak and possible transmission issues. Common causes of transmission fluid leaks include worn seals, a damaged transmission housing, a loose or cracked transmission pan, an overfilled transmission, or faulty transmission lines.

  • Can I still drive my Volkswagen Tiguan Limited if it has a transmission fluid leak? You should avoid driving with a transmission fluid leak. Your transmission system relies on transmission fluid to operate properly, and a leak may decrease performance, cause your Tiguan Limited to overheat, or even lead to transmission failure.
