1. Surprised they're staying with the GolfV steering wheel, contrary to other reports - I think the GolfVI wheel controls are an improvement - intuitive
2. Factory Tint would have been great - aftermarket tint is so inferior.

I'm guessing we can't just get our current model software "upgraded" so that the reduction in Park Assist distance and the minor changes are integrated?

The current park assist (pre 2010)is 1.5m and that's way less than I'd park in myself (by choice anyway), think I'd have a heart attack at 1.1m !!!!!!!

I agree, 1.1m would be just asking to be nudged parked by the car behind or infront. It would be interesting to know exactly what changes have been made with the park assist, sensors, hardware/firmware or steering rack?

Personally I rarely use PA but I guess when I get a stiff neck or some other disability, the use of it is always available. Maybe the tight spots are what it is best used for, but I would just look for a larger car space.

Yep, I use it most when the parking spaces are a bit tight, you know the one's where you "know" you can get in there BUT don't want to look like a prat if you stuff it up and have to have another go and another and >>>>>>>>.

So, just flick on park assist, put your hands on your head and get on with it !!!

Only sofware changes I suppose. Now the PA can park in few moves (eg. back, front, back). I will try to make a video soon and post it.

Can someone post both the MY10 dash photos?

The earlier link doesn't work for me?

Um, that's all I can remember.

Hrm - where's the Track and Field option? or the 125kw diesel? :)

Actually, might have found pics on the US VW site.

Have a look at the German VW website and download the Tiguan brochure. In it it shows the all new 2010 version with the new Golf VI climatic and also the full climate control panel. Gone is the old panel.
