Currently, the official has not addressed the particulate filter clogging issue in the Volkswagen Tiguan L. Detailed explanation: Recently, a small number of owners have reported that their Tiguan L's particulate filter is clogged, leading to increased fuel consumption, reduced power, and other issues. However, the official has not yet provided a solution for the particulate filter clogging problem in the Tiguan L. Below are three temporary solutions: Solution 1: Drive more on highways. For example, when driving at 80 km/h, quickly accelerate to 120 km/h, then reduce back to 80 km/h, repeating this several times. This puts the engine under high load, raising the exhaust temperature to oxidize and clean the particulate filter. Solution 2: Shift the vehicle to neutral and rev the engine to 3000-4000 RPM to increase exhaust temperature, thereby regenerating the particulate filter. Solution 3: Avoid short trips and traffic congestion to prevent particulate filter clogging. Note: Clearly, the above methods do not fundamentally solve the particulate filter clogging issue—they are only temporary fixes. Additionally, they may pose safety risks to owners during use.
