Dear All,

Tiguan 1.4TSI 4 Motion is sitting at a dealership, awaiting Pistons and other parts. It has only 73,000km on the clock.

At 15,000 KM the timing Chain went, at 46,000 the turbo went at 60,000km no power and very low performance.

Will these repairs help with the performance and oil leaking that the service dealership can’t trace. From 45,000 Km had to keep topping up the oil, I did this twice putting around 6+ pints. Is this normal for the engine or is it a factory fault, should we sell the car after this issue.

Hello, Yes these repairs and problems seem very excessive, if it was me, I would sell it the second I got it back.

Best, Ken
