2 Answers
The method to reset the tire pressure warning light on the Tiguan is: 1. Ensure all four tires have consistent pressure; 2. Press the tire pressure reset button located near the glove compartment; 3. Turn on the ignition and wait for a sound, then the tire pressure light will reset. Taking the 2021 Tiguan 2WD Comfort Edition as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4712mm, width 1839mm, height 1673mm, with a wheelbase of 2791mm, a fuel tank capacity of 60 liters, and a trunk capacity of 495 liters. The 2021 Tiguan 2WD Comfort Edition features a front MacPherson strut independent suspension and a rear multi-link independent suspension. It is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 186PS, maximum power of 137kW, and maximum torque of 320Nm.
Oh, I've encountered the tire pressure warning light issue on the Tiguan several times. Actually, resetting it is quite simple, but you need to follow the steps carefully. First, make sure all tire pressures are adjusted to the standard value - for the Tiguan it's usually 2.4-2.5 bar (check the door frame or owner's manual for exact specifications), using a tire pressure gauge to verify and adjust. Then locate the SET button on the dashboard or center console, press and hold for a few seconds until the light goes off. If there's no physical button, you might need to navigate to the vehicle settings in the infotainment system to reset the TPMS. After resetting, drive for a while (preferably above 50 km/h for 5-10 minutes) to let the system recalibrate automatically. If the light remains on, it indicates either an air leak or a faulty sensor, and you should visit a repair shop to prevent potential safety issues.
