Questions About 2015 Volkswagen Tiguan’s Transmission

  • What happens if I "ride" my Volkswagen's brakes? Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Volkswagen? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Tiguan’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Tiguan is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • How often does my Tiguan transmission fluid need to be checked? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2015 Tiguan’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. Some technicians would say that between 30,000 and 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your Volkswagen's transmission fluid checked and replaced, but that timeline can vary depending on how your vehicle is used and your manufacturer’s recommendations. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my Volkswagen Tiguan? Yes. Volkswagen Tiguan transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems.
