Reviews of spare parts for Volkswagen Tiguan
I went with Michelin defender ltx m/s and they rock. Plenty comfortable.
I just did mine today. Used VW haldex fluid for the AWD haldex, and Amsoil SevereGear 75W90 in both the front and rear bevel boxes.
Guys, I have successfully retrofitted genuine SEL Premium LED headlights to the car. This was the most challenging retrofit I'd ever done, not because of the wiring, but because of the coding and troubleshooting.

I have EBC front sets on an 08 C30 T5 M66 and 03 GS300. Both are Redstuff pads rather than Green as in the Kit below. Exceptional brakes so will use these when times come for our 2020 Tiguan.
EBC has worked well for us on 3 cars already. When time comes our 2020 Tiguan will most likely get the BSD Series Sport Rotor w/Ultra Quiet V Slot Configuration. Had those and the Red Pads on an 03 GS300 and Red Stuff brake pads with some generic slotted and dimple rotors on the back. Excellent and smooth!
Yes, my OEM blades became annoyingly loud over time. It sounded as if the blade itself was bending in the direction of the sweep every time and made this terrible clacking noise. I've since changed them to Bosch Icons as well and everything is okay.
I had blizzaks for a few seasons after a set of very good dunlops. I was severely dissatisfied in the e blizzak performance. Not only did they wear quickly but they were awful in the snow and dry. We have X-ices on the Tiguan and they are far superior to the blizzaks.
When doing your own maintenance, a problem may arise in the event of a recall. My application under the water pump recall for my previous Tiguan (1st Gen - PQ) was denied even though it was replaced at a VW dealer because I did not show "convincing evidence" of having followed the scheduled coolant maintenance despite including my aftermarket receipts with miles and dates.
