Usually, it is warning the driver that there may be a problem with a certain part of the car. More details about the exclamation mark on the Tiguan L dashboard are as follows: Meaning of the yellow triangle with an exclamation mark in the middle: Traction Control System (TCS) indicator. This light comes on to remind you to turn off the traction control system. If this light stays on while the traction control system is active, it indicates a problem with the TCS. Normally, when the TCS is functioning, this light will blink. If it remains lit, it suggests an issue with the TCS. Sometimes, the light stays on, but after turning off and restarting the engine, it returns to normal. Meaning of the yellow bracket with a circled exclamation mark in the middle: Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) indicator. It indicates that the pressure in one of the tires is insufficient. You should check the tire pressure at a tire shop or a 4S store. Also, check if there is any puncture from nails or similar objects. The tire pressure should be the same for the front two wheels and the same for the rear two wheels. After adjusting the tire pressure to normal, the indicator may still be on. In this case, turn on the ignition key and press and hold the TPMS switch for a few seconds, and the indicator will turn off. Meaning of the yellow gear with an exclamation mark in the middle: Automatic Transmission Fault Warning Light. It indicates a fault in the transmission, or the transmission fluid is below the normal range, or the fluid needs to be replaced.
