Missing cover/fascia plate?

[Guest001]

There was no hacking. Neat job. I'm happy with it.
I'm not concerned with ugly 50 mm hitches. Always had towbars showing, no biggie for me.
That one on the link you have does look neat though.

Good you are happy. Only downside to towbars on a Tiguan is that the ballweight limit is so low you cant tow anything worthwhile No good having a towbar with a 200kg towball limit if car can only allow a lot less like isnt it 85kg????or 100kg.

Strangely enough that from MY21 onwards, the brochure indicates an maximum down ball weight of 200kg and the diesel variants with a max braked two capacity of 2,500kg.

This info is also in the handbook of both our Elegance 147's, hers being a MY21 and mine an MY23

But does it , like the Nissan have a reducing ballweight similar to the Nissan that if you load the car up with 5 pax and all your gear the ballweight allowance drops like a stone. A Landcruiser can have the full weight even at its full capacity as long as it doesnt exceed its GVM

Also the subject is about a 2018 model before any reviews of limits

Noticed the hole under the bumper, could be a missing cover. Maybe check with a VW expert or dealership to be sure.
