Description of the problem | The tiguan has been having issues with hesitation while shifting between 1st and 2nd gear. You can feel an immediate loss of power, loss of boost and a bucking feeling while it shifting. I've also driven another tiguan of the same year and the issue was present on that specific model too. This issue is not only an annoyance but also a safety issue while merging or trying to accelerate from a stop. |
