2019 Volkswagen TIGUAN Power Train Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1701044
Internal NHTSA #	11372318

Model	TIGUAN
Model Year	2019
File date	28/10/20

Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Sport shift. This is an underpowered and sometimes confused vehicle. Most owners say to drive in "sport" mode to help it not hesitate as much when accelerating from a stop (can have long hesitation for no apparent reason) and when passing at highway speeds. Per manual "sport mode will not allow transmission to go into highest gear" which is 8th gear. However once in sport mode, and cruising with steady speed and rpm, if you place selector to manual mode the shift indictor immediately displays 8 with no change in engine tone or rpm. This indicates to me that the transmission is already in 8th gear against design and operation manual description. I believe this is a contributing factor for the sluggish transmission response during normal operation which does not seem very different from sport mode and will cause premature transmission problems some owners have complained about. Dealer says there are no codes so this is normal.
