Where is the Touareg nameplate located?
2 Answers
The Touareg nameplate is located on the B-pillar of the front passenger side, visible upon opening the door. Method to check the nameplate: Open the car door, pull the hood release lever located on the left side of the driver's seat leg area; lift the engine hood upwards; use the support rod to prop up the hood to see the nameplate, but ensure the support is secure to avoid any hazards. Vehicle nameplate: It is a plate indicating the basic characteristics of the vehicle. It mainly includes the manufacturer's brand, model, engine power, total weight, load capacity or passenger capacity, manufacturing number, production date, and manufacturer's name, primarily composed of 17 alphanumeric characters.
As a long-time Tiguan owner, I pay close attention to vehicle details. The VIN plate is typically located on the driver's side door frame. When you open the door, you'll find a small metal label near the sill area displaying the vehicle's VIN code and other critical information such as manufacturing year, model code, and production location. If unsure, there's sometimes a secondary VIN plate under the hood near the base of the windshield. Knowing this location makes used car transactions or insurance claims much easier – just snap a photo with your phone. Additionally, remember to periodically check the plate's condition to prevent wear or rust from affecting legibility. I recommend asking dealers to point it out during initial delivery to establish good habits. In daily use, I simply wipe the area to prevent dust buildup from obscuring information. The placement is thoughtfully designed – easily accessible yet secure.
