Just got second car and first car for daughter a great condition Tiguan 2010.

151,000km

Has been well serviced and is in excellent cosmetic condition.

Roof lining falling off will need doing soon.

Will probably do DIY oil changes from now on.

Thinking of DIY doing coolant change and power steering fluid. Are there forum DIY guides?

Keen to learn from others on two main issues;

Changing 6 speed auto non-DSG fluid is this recommended since it’s a not scheduled service?

Timing chain. How paranoid about getting it changed should I be? How likely is it the tensioner would have been replaced given early year faults and part updates?

Recommended online parts suppliers. My other car is a Land Rover so there is excellent parts suppliers in Australia and UK I’d like to find VW equivalent.

Thank you
Richard

HI, I've a 2009 Tiguan TSI with leather seats and comfort pack, bought it last year from a guy who had it from new (188ks). Since then fitted Grey 18 by 8 ET45 Team Dynamics wheels with Michelin Pilot sport 4's; Audi S3 front brakes; Stage 2 Racing-Line tune (201kw and 405Nm) with CTS 3inch down pipe and middle muffler delete;rear sway bar (25mm) and front strut brace. My mechanic tells me the 6 speed auto won't handle any more power and torque than this tune. So that's it for power upgrades, as I've heard swapping the auto for a DSG box is a very complicated and expensive undertaking.
