When is the first maintenance for the new Tiguan L?
2 Answers
The first maintenance for the new Tiguan L is required at 5,000 kilometers or 3 months. The Tiguan L is a mid-size 5-door, 5-seat SUV with the following dimensions: length 4712mm, width 1839mm, height 1673mm, wheelbase 2791mm, and fuel tank capacity 60L. It is equipped with a 1.4T turbocharged engine and a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, delivering a maximum power of 110 kW at 5000 rpm and a maximum torque of 250 N·m between 1750 to 3000 rpm. The drivetrain configuration is front-engine, front-wheel drive. The front suspension uses MacPherson strut independent suspension, while the rear suspension employs a multi-link independent suspension.
After driving the new Tiguan L, the first maintenance is generally recommended between 5,000 to 10,000 kilometers or within six months, whichever comes first. As a car enthusiast, I often remind my friends to check the owner's manual for the specific date; the manual provides detailed recommendations, such as my car's first maintenance at 7,500 kilometers, which included an oil change and basic inspection. Delaying maintenance may harm the engine and affect the warranty. I always suggest paying extra attention to driving habits in the first few thousand kilometers, avoiding aggressive driving to prolong the car's condition. Booking an appointment with the 4S dealership is straightforward, as they handle everything professionally, saving time and effort. Regularly checking tire pressure and brakes also helps avoid unexpected issues.
