Appreciate the video. Wife's Tiguan is at 60k so I pulled up the maintenance schedule and was planning on getting these done. Turns out for 2019 VWs, these should be done at 80k miles / 6 years instead of 60k.

Thank you!

Should you change coils while you’re at it ?

Do not put anti seize on NGK plugs

Ok- so changed the transmission fluid today- it was easier than doing a oil change! Crazy easy! How thr fuck are mechanics saying this takes 2 hours of labour. I was done in 15 minutes. Dodgy fucking mechanics

32mm worked just fine in mine. Your milage may vary.

great video, what rear tires and wheels are those?

This is one of the best step-by-step guide I have ever seen. Thank you!

Right to the point. Thank you so much !!

That oil filter location is the reason why I have never changed the oil in this car myself, I just supply the oil and filter to the dealer and pay😅

Thanks for making this video 😀

Thank you for posting this. You saved me hours of head scratching and wrenching trying to figure out how to remove the deck to replace a bent blade. Never occurred to me that I could just pick the front end up by hand and prop it on a step stool.

The steps were correct. However, never put anti-seize on spark plugs. The vibration from the engine can cause them to come loose. Also never torque down the spark plugs unless the manufacturer requires it. The last thing you want is to remove the threads with the spark plug the next time around.

Need help i bought the ngk ruthenium spark plugs for performance i have them on all my vehicles even thought some of them doesnt come out as compatible like for instance i have a 2022 hyundai tucson 2.5l naturally aspirated and used the refrence number as of a 3.5l v6 and it works perfectly i also have a 2016 audi a3 which i put ruthenium ngks and works like a charm i used the same part number because of the other 2.0l turbo engine in audi to match the 2021 volkswagen tiguan idk what i did wrong but my car shakes when start a little bit then i didnt want to drive it i am scared i messed something up

So it’s okay that I don’t torque the oil filter?

Gapping the spark plugs???

Very nice vid, love the bag where you get it?

Love this video. Just tried it for the first time. Everything was great ... except ... my oil filter housing appears to have a slightly different grip pattern. The notches don't line up with the grips, they are shifted about a 1/4 inch from the main fitting. Has anyone else had this problem?

What if I skipped the VCDS prime? If I just crank the engine won't the system soon populate with fuel?

Omg wow thank you so much. I thought it would be harder than the way you just did. Thank you so much 👍👍

Excellent video. Just ordered everything needed for my 2018 Tiquan. (Tools, plugs, greases). I hope my experience will be similiar to yours. I'm a bit concerned with the clips for the harness since I don't have your finger strength and dexterity at my age anymore. (79)

It’s easier to unplug the coils from the harness if you use a pick tool instead of pressing on the clip

Torque spec?

How do you properly dispose of the old oil? 😅

Funny if someone else 😊

Love the clarity and smooth clear close up on clip removals which is vital ❤

great video

Just come out and start it and let it run about every couple weeks. No need for a battery charger. Good video. 👍

That scooter rag dolled you like a cartoon 😂

Should I go OEM on the filter

It’s actually t25 and t45

and where do you live? canada or alaska?

Should leave the engine cover off, the vibrations make it chew thru lines on top of engine.

Thank you! Will get at it tomorrow.

I return to this video every 6 months. Thank you so much for creating this.

Best oil change tutorial on this make/model on the internet. Thk U🙏

I just changed the spark plugs in my daughter's 2018 Tiguan. It would have been really easy but one of the boots got stuck. After spraying it with silicon and pulling, and next spraying it with brake cleaner & pulling it eventually broke off, leaving about 1"+ that I had to dig out. All of the boots were sticky like glue. I scrubbed them with brake cleaner & greased them with dielectric grease. I'm not sure why VW thought the fit needed to be so darned tight?! I found a replacement boot in stock at O'Rielly's for $7. I also found a good price on the spark plugs at Rock Auto. Bosch 8501 for $8.96 each. Now I'm thinking it's also about time to change the transmission fluid & filter. From what I've found so far, it seems like about $200 for parts & 3 quarts of AFT. The Tiguan holds 6 quarts, but only 3 will drain out at a time. So, you'd have to perform multiple drains & refills to replace most of it. (I guess the same guy that designed the tight plug boots helped design the transmission too.) Have you done the transmission yet?

Loved also the BMW E30 shirt. Nice.

Excellent video. Haven't changed a cartridge type filter. Very helpful to see this. Thanks!

Awesome video. Thanks for making it and getting right to it.

Nice Video, You might want to replace the crushed washer on the bolt.?.

How long do I need to have the Frost heater plugged in? Is there such a thing as too long?

Antes de colocar el filtro nuevo debió de limpiar la pieza donde se coloca el filtro nuevo ya aquí está todo lo que se recoge del aceite (esmeril) del motor.

Should have loosened off your oil filter first to allow the oil flow more easily and completely from the engine..

Would you recommend the APR tune? I've always thought my daughter's 2018 Tiguan was a bit sluggish off the line. She's used to it, but it makes me a little nervous when pulling into traffic. Also, do you use fuel system cleaner regularly? I've read that it's important on the DI engines.

Thanks for the info bro,doing that job today.

NGK does not recommend the use of anti-seize.

Nice video Would you ever sell the exhaust pipe ?

Thx for the video..worked pretty much exactly as u mentioned on my wife's 2018 Tiguan 👍

thanks for the vid. but i believe VW says we should be using 0w30 and correct me if i'm wrong but i think only their OEM oil will keep you from voiding your warranty, even if it has the 507 spec?
