Interesting, thank you.

Out of interest how do I decipher this? My previous car just had the recommended psi against each tyre

I think it depends on the load of the car.. the middle one is recommended as per manual..

Yep but I don’t understand the numbers! Excuse my silliness but every air station has 30 something.. can only see “230 and 2,3” which I have no idea what they mean (I’m new to VW and SUVs)

Ok I found it! Bar to PSI conversion needed. 34 seems recommended. Blonde moment

Hi all. Am keen to purchase a Tiguan TDI Adventure. Rapt to find these threads and learn more than from the same old same old reviews. How good are the LED headlights for country driving? How quiet is the car at 110 km/hr on highways? What do you see as the major plusses, and if any, negatives? Is this a model you can deal a good deal with with the dealer? Thanks.

The LED are good but I've seen a lot of Tiguan owners (G1 and G2) that have added extra LED light bar.

Is this a model you can deal a good deal with with the dealer?

Depends on how and when you haggle.

230 is kiloPascal (kPa) 2,3 is in bar (2.3 bar, in Europe a comma is used as a decimal delimiter where we use a point/full stop)

On the electronic tyre inflator things at service stations, hit the 'units of measure' button to switch between psi and kPa. Most manual guages will have a dual scale with one on either side.

If you want to use psi
230 kPa = 33.3 psi
260 kPa =37.7 psi
300 kPa = 43.5 psi

Sounds satisfactory but I guess was looking for 'excellent' as the answer to the headlights. Thanks for feedback.

Hi. I’ve only driven mine once T night so far but they were good, but.. my dealer offered an overnight test drive, (didn’t take it) but might be worth considering if you want to check out lights and go a bit further . I’ve read a few reviews that suggest wind noise at 110km/hr and to be honest there’s is a small amount which I think comes from the side mirror but honestly with the radio on even softly you cannot hear it. I’ve not noticed tyre noise . Bear in mind my old car is a 12yo Outback so this new car feels like a space ship. The Outback was quieter than the Corolla which was quieter than the Beetle. I’ve been delighted so far. No cons except maybe the one reversing light seems a bit dumb, but otherwise so far so good. Pluses are def the keyless entry and autoboot. DAB would have been handy. Oh, I got an ok deal I thought (might have been bc the my18.5 was coming with more USB’s) so, 46500 drive away with metallic paint, mats, boot liner, protective strip and DAP. Not sure how much more they would moved. Good luck

Thank you Jackson 22. This is excellent feedback. The price seems to be around the norm. Just checking, DAB is the digital radio, which we don't get in country Vic anyway. And yes, the 18.5 update is coming. Do we know other than extra USB's, are their other changes? Cheers.
