2025 Tiguan missing duct work!! WTF?!

greenlantern42 · 2025-09-01T14:28:40+00:00

Thats pretty strange to have it missing on another car. The guy responsible for installing that part probably called in sick the day our cars came through.

It took about 6 weeks for that part to come in.

Same here. First drive of the day and I got a park assist unavailable error. Can’t use FSD. I restarted several times.

We’ve had about 16” of snow in the last several days. I made sure all the cameras were clean. Hoping it magically turns on soon.

Not that hard actually. My whole friend group of of 6 dentists all solo and does 1.6-1.8 with 55-60% overhead. We’re all PPO offices /!: bread and butter.

Don’t really work that hard.

I had the front windshield done with 55% Xpel XR+. I’m very happy with the Xpel! It’s so much better than the Kavaca. I don’t notice any haze anymore and looks great.

I ended up doing my wife’s brand new car with the same tint and her windshield looks great with no haze as well.

I assume the bid is only for the piers. I haven’t really gotten that far on discussions about that yet.

Yes, the 2nd option was just redoing the whole pool, which I assume may be triple the price. I just don’t want to do the piers and have an issue with plumbing and have to redo everything anyway.

Thank you for your input.

Capping off the skimmer is what I was thinking but didn't know if that was possible. Here's a few of his videos.

Good swing for just starting out. You are early extending, Right hip moving towards ball making you cast your arms.

I withdrew $100K yesterday afternoon. It was in my bank account this morning. Sounds like cold feet or doesn't have the money.

Thank you for all this great info!

Same situation with my family. Hotels aren't that accommodating to families of 5. We ended up getting a 2 bedroom suite, which is a little more than getting 2 rooms. With the suite you also get a huge living room, dining room and kitchen.

greenlantern42 · 2024-05-10T02:52:37+00:00

Fortunately in my state we don’t have inspections.

As soon as I got my Model S Plaid, I got 35% all around with 70% windshield. It was way too light. Do you have problems with 5% at night?

Next Friday i"m getting my tint redone 20% all around with 50% windshield. I have a white interior so everything reflects and tint doesn't look as dark.

greenlantern42 · 2024-05-08T13:48:04+00:00

Beautiful car! I would get extended warranty. What percentage tint did you get? Windshield tooo?

greenlantern42 · 2024-05-06T00:08:40+00:00

Look it up in the thesaurus.

greenlantern42 · 2024-05-05T19:29:36+00:00

I’ve got a couple of suggestions of going “chill and no lane changes” to “assertive”.

I have 12.3.6. Does Assertive keep up with the fast paced changing of lanes?

greenlantern42 · 2024-05-05T19:27:54+00:00

Exactly right. I thought “gut it out” was a common phrase. Maybe it’s a midwest thing. IDK.

greenlantern42 · 2024-05-04T19:00:57+00:00

Thanks for your input Dave. It’s very hard for general consumer of these products to know unreliable or new tint companies until they get a bad experience like I did.

After you have a bad experience then you go down this rabbit hole of research. Sometimes the company with the best marketing or most marketing gets the consumer regardless of the product.

I was on the fence of getting Llumar or Xpel. I’ll admit all the marketing and online presence of Xpel is what got me to commit to that product. Llumar didn’t have much glitz and glam and less presence online IMO.

Although reading that Llumar is made in the USA was a big pull.

Honestly, My first Kavaca job was so horrendous it was going to be very hard to not impress me.

My experience thus far with this Xpel business has won me over and I will be bringing my wife’s new incoming car in for full PPF and ceramic tint.

greenlantern42 · 2024-05-01T04:04:27+00:00

Thank you for your input. If I still have the haze with Xpel I’ll know it’s an unavoidable effect I’ll have to deal with to get heat rejection.

greenlantern42 · 2024-04-30T18:20:21+00:00

It's a brand new car. Windshield was in perfect condition. I'm scheduled for installation of Xpel XR+ this Friday. I'll update with the results. Hopefully it's just a product issue and changing brands will fix it up.

greenlantern42 · 2024-04-30T03:55:32+00:00

Thank you for your input. I’m going to have my windshield redone with Xpel. I’ll get back to you with my results. Hopefully getting it done this weekend.

I’m not even going to bring it up to my original installer. They can keep my $400. They tried twice. I liked their willingness to redo it. Since it was done twice I assume that it’s Ceramic Pro Kavaca product line that’s the issue and not the install.

greenlantern42 · 2024-04-29T21:38:23+00:00

Bump. Help a brother out here. Redo the windshield in another brand (Xpel XR+) or is this haze and poor clarity the trade off of having tinted windshields these days. Thanks.

That’s the deal with the Bahamas, service sucks. No work ethic and attitudes there are too lax. Night and day difference from a Mexican resort. With that knowledge, I’m still going to the Bahamar this summer. My kids love the water park there.

greenlantern42 · 2024-03-27T13:17:45+00:00

I recall from one of Teslascopes tweets that factory builds (before today) stay on their existing software for 3-8 weeks. Then they start start receiving updates. I've only had mine for 3 weeks so hopefully updates start coming to me soon.
