Description of the problem | Regardless of outside ambient or engine operating temperature. When ever this vehicle powers down (aka sleep mode) when it is restarted this vehicle requires a minimum of 2:20 seconds of idle time before engine rpm will drop below 1000 rpm so it can be safely placed into gear. This happens in 105 deg tx days in the parking lot of the grocery store as well as the garage in the morning. Dealer says "no codes", so it is working as designed! An acquaintance at work has 2018 tiguan and his does not do this. This wastes gas and is bad for the environment. Went to dealer 2x thus far. They do not care. |
