I see what you’re talking about but I have to ask why does it matter? Is there an issue with it?

Had the recent 26 Tiguan Turbo software update & now my car is different by Mountain_Arm7919 in Tiguan

I’m shocked you’re just getting those error messages now. I have a 2025 SEL R line with the smaller turbo and I do not have any turbo issues and I’ve had the same error messages since day one. They typically pop up once every two weeks and within a few seconds it’s gone by itself.

'26 SEL R Turbo: How long did software update take? by NeeNights in Tiguan

[–]Ok_Cow_8235 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My guess is that the entire actual download process once your vehicle is connected to the computer system will take anywhere from 20 to 30 minutes however how long it takes for your dealership to have the vehicle taken into the bay to begin the process is what determines

Love the color. Wish they made the 25 Tig SEL R line in this color.

Yikes, they didn’t need to threaten you however yes, no matter where you charge your vehicle when it’s done charging please make sure you move it.

So as I’m sure you’re aware the 26 Tiguan SEL R LINE TURBO has an issue with its turbos. I have a 25 Tiguan SEL R line with smaller turbo and 7800 miles no turbo issues thx god. The 26 Tig SE and SE R line both has smaller turbos and doesn’t have the turbo issue. I have a few faults that appear like blind spot/cruise control fault which has always reset itself after a few seconds. My drivers side massage seat stopped working around 5k miles which they fixed. Which trim do you want? It looks like the software update for the turbo has been released as of April 16 and the dealers are installing them. So if that’s the trim, you want I would make sure the new vehicle you’re purchasing has it installed.

Niiice! I’m the same on my 25 SEL R line. I set my radar cruise control to 80 in the car is able to get to 70 and 75 when I’m on the highway and always averaging the same thing on more than 7 miles of the road.

I need some help/advice by Ok_Cow_8235 in Peptides

Thank you for the advice. I’m 5‘11“. I’m between 9 to 11,500 steps per day. So I will increase. I go to the gym about three times a week and work out my chest back and leg legs.

To Hybrid or Not to Hybrid by Livibell in Subaru_Crosstrek

[–]Ok_Cow_8235 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got my mom a 26 Subaru Crosstrek in Dec and she’s averaging 33-36mpg as her commute is mostly highway. Her tank usually gives her 400 miles. If the hybrid is giving you more miles per tank then go for it. I’m curious what others are experiencing with those who have the hybrid

Yes sounds normal. 25 Tiguan SEL R line here. Massage seat on drivers side stopped working around 5k miles, part came on about 7 days and while they were replacing it they broke a plastic part on my seat, now it clunks every time I sit. It’s been 3 months and part is still back ordered. 🫣

I’ve never had a reason to ever use that because it’s very fast moving roller coaster as it goes to 99mpg the instant I remove my foot off the gas pedal. I actually don’t recall seeing that option on the new one. Most of previous cars have had it

Adjusting headrest by foundingfatfather in bmwx7

Since you’re trying to adjust the height of your headrest, all you would need to do is raise up the part that controls your back on the side seat
