My Tiguan has arrived and this is my experience so far

[Mac135]

I spoke to the stock controller today as my dealer was away, build starts week 16 and he said the boat will arrive is June , then 10days from that should be able to pick up.

Not sure a June delivery is realistic if it is build week 16. My new Audi was built last week (week 9) and it's not expected here until the very end of May. Currently we are in build week 10 so six weeks on is late April before you even have a car. Good news if it is June

From what others have said previously, no the forward number plate mount cannot be removed.

I've ordered the full sized Euro black plates for this reason. Anything else would look silly.

Hi Don, just a quick one, I have successfully removed the front mount, the centre of the plugs push out, and remounted slim line plates. Obtained some colour coded plugs for the existing holes off the internet, very happy with the look. Cheers mate.

That looks great mate. Great job.

I haven't received ours yet so was only going by what others had said.

Hi All, I was told there will be a shipment of Tiguan 162TSI arriving 1st March (Melbourne). Is there anyone waiting for their vehicle on that shipment ?

Good work, great result. That's the look I want to achieve, keen to hear where you got the plugs from.

Hi Dubber, yep that's the site they were sourced from, just select your colour and they were processed very quickly, they keep you updated with a tracker number and shipping details. Also great forum thx to all who contribute
