I have done both the front and rear Golf R swap on mine. Tiguan rears are 300x11mm solid discs, Golf R are 310x22mm vented discs. Rears bolt right up, only thing to be aware of is you need to swap the electric ebrake motors from your stock calipers over, as the R calipers do not include them.
Just had this fail on our wagon (EA888 Gen 3) and independent shop charged $900 but that included the OEM full water pump assembly (not a rebuild, brand new) along with coolant flush and a few gaskets.
I have had mine activate the brakes on me, I was at a light behind a car that wasn't moving once it changed to green. I started to just engage first gear and creep up a bit to let them know the light changed and apparently got too close so my car slams the brakes and makes me feel like it's my first time driving a manual.
I have a 2015 R and my water pump failed in January, about 2 months before my warranty expired. It was covered by the dealer under the warranty so not sure what the cost was. Pump and thermostat were both replaced.
Water pump refinement Again, not looking for anything miraculous here, just making for a smoother flow.
I have a 2014 Jetta 1.8TSI CPRA in my shop with 115Kmi and a broken timing chain. It's the first I've seen but still a sign of possible trouble with the T-chain on these engines.
In my experience, the headlights aren't bad but I liked the ones on my 2017 more. The 2020 has a brighter light, but it doesn't look like as much of the road in front of me is illuminated.
I have the same problem with my recently acquired 2011 Sharan. Tried a suggestion of new spark plugs with no success.
I do not like the brake feel on this car. Extremely touchy. Not at all like my 2014 GTI. Good to know some different pads might address this. Might look into that.
