Great video! Just did this about an hour ago. It is 20min for anyone who can turn a wrench. For anyone wondering, the stock plugs are VW part# 06K905601K and are about $25/ea(!!!) at the dealer. I didn't find any at the local parts places. As far as the job itself, I was able to get the ground terminal nuts removed without filing down a wrench but that's a good trick in case the nut is tighter than the stud. I also didn't need to remove the smaller connectors, only the harness to each coil but your way would give you more room to work if a boot is stuck. Only other things I did differently were to apply some dielectric grease to the boot and not use any anti seize on the plug.
Thanks man! Yeah the spark plug prices are nuts lol I'm torn on the anti-seize, usually in these videos I try to be super "official", but in reality I've never had an issue with spark plugs getting stuck. Especially if I'm the one that installed them and know that I didn't put 200ft/lbs on them lol
My Tiguan has been a road warrior for me, 2018 finally has 132,000 miles. Not really issues with it mechanically. I'm about to replace my spark plugs soon here. I don't do the oil, but I do the spark plugs, filters, brakes, tire rotations and whatever else I don't want to spend 300 or more on. The only issue I did have was I had to have a fuel injector replaced and fuel pump, but after talking with mechanics I know and reading, I probably would've never had that issue if I just used Seafoam's injector cleaner, been using it since it's been running like a horse!
@@kennethcajulis7177 I believe it was the EPC, it's been over a year now though, sorry for a late reply guys. Outside my fuel pump everything else is great. I just did my spark plugs recently, the clips were a pain, but that was the worst part. I just gotta do my tires soon again. I do probably have a sensor coming up soon, I have my check engine light on and my one buddy said it's probably a sensor. It was for air bank 1.
My 2015 got 380000 miles only did the spark plugs at 260000 and burned 4 coils in its lifetime replaced one at a time new ones burned before some of the old ones so dont throw them away. took oil after 200 000 i just put my used truck oil in it its runs smooth except for the hpfp metering valve is normally very noisy sounds like a bad motor but its fine gona make it to 400 000 this sumer never babied the thing vw oh and went thu all 4 weel berings always put the vw ones back think they are Timken berings
Appreciate the video. Wife's Tiguan is at 60k so I pulled up the maintenance schedule and was planning on getting these done. Turns out for 2019 VWs, these should be done at 80k miles / 6 years instead of 60k.
At 57k on a 2019… bought it at 29k… it’s been slow to accelerate so I’m assuming it’s my plugs… the dealer did a number on me 🤦🏾♀️so far I’ve had the brakes changed (6 months in, they were TRASHED) and about 6-7 oil changes since buying last January… I’ve spent enough, I’ll just do this before I do my nails 🤣 thanks for the video!
I bought a 2018 4motion SE brand new, the tune of the Tiguan is horrible. The accelerator curve had been neutered to try and peserve gas milage. If you but the vehicle in sport mode you do gain much more torque and accelerating power but still not what the car is capable of. To gain the power of the car you have to master the Tiptronic manual shifting. Basically 80 percent of the time i’m shifting gears myself, mostly because the Tiguan is ver quick to upshift to a higher gear but not downshift fast enought to get passing power when needed. You you learn to drop a gear or two or three before passing etc.
@@Yolbosunecon mode is only for long straight highway driving not daily driving your causing danger upon yourself. Leave the car in regular Drive or sport, only use econ when your could also use cruise control other never use econ.
NGK actually recommends not to use any antisieze on the threads of those particular plugs, they apply a special coating on the threads from the factory which gives the shiny appearance.
I decided to add the anti-seize bit so people wouldn't complain about me not using it, but I knew this comment would come too. Well done! LOL It's not something I normally do since I change my spark plugs at regular intervals.
Excellent video. Just ordered everything needed for my 2018 Tiquan. (Tools, plugs, greases). I hope my experience will be similiar to yours. I'm a bit concerned with the clips for the harness since I don't have your finger strength and dexterity at my age anymore. (79)
I just changed the spark plugs in my daughter's 2018 Tiguan. It would have been really easy but one of the boots got stuck. After spraying it with silicon and pulling, and next spraying it with brake cleaner & pulling it eventually broke off, leaving about 1"+ that I had to dig out. All of the boots were sticky like glue. I scrubbed them with brake cleaner & greased them with dielectric grease. I'm not sure why VW thought the fit needed to be so darned tight?! I found a replacement boot in stock at O'Rielly's for $7. I also found a good price on the spark plugs at Rock Auto. Bosch 8501 for $8.96 each. Now I'm thinking it's also about time to change the transmission fluid & filter. From what I've found so far, it seems like about $200 for parts & 3 quarts of AFT. The Tiguan holds 6 quarts, but only 3 will drain out at a time. So, you'd have to perform multiple drains & refills to replace most of it. (I guess the same guy that designed the tight plug boots helped design the transmission too.) Have you done the transmission yet?
My 2018 Tiguan is having some misfire issues in cylinder 1. I’m about to find a set of these and swap them. I’m at 67000 miles so it’s about time. I’m hoping this does the trick if not I’ll work on the coils. Wish me luck! Thanks for the video this is extremely helpful!
as others have said the plugs were the biggest PITA. Then getting the boots off after 70k miles and 6+ years. I never thought they would pop...I added a touch of silicone grease as I install them to make it easier for the next guy, which more likely than not will be me... Maybe I missed the torque spec you used but you should always reduce by about 10% when ever using any lube, or anti seize...
Great video thank you so much! Going to be changing mine today and this helps a ton. Any way you can post a video of how to change the brakes? Thanks again!
I have a 2021 tiguan r line awd advanced is saying the 91006 does not fit my car, and to use ngk IZFR6J but I seen another video where they used 91006 as well.
The steps were correct. However, never put anti-seize on spark plugs. The vibration from the engine can cause them to come loose. Also never torque down the spark plugs unless the manufacturer requires it. The last thing you want is to remove the threads with the spark plug the next time around.
Can you put the "Cooler" ones in a Tiguan (if I can find them ... train of thought I am wondering for my 2016 Tiguan which could be totally diff) But wondering if they could go in one that isn't tuned ? Just to run a better plug ? or not necessary and only for APR stage 1 modification....?
Need help i bought the ngk ruthenium spark plugs for performance i have them on all my vehicles even thought some of them doesnt come out as compatible like for instance i have a 2022 hyundai tucson 2.5l naturally aspirated and used the refrence number as of a 3.5l v6 and it works perfectly i also have a 2016 audi a3 which i put ruthenium ngks and works like a charm i used the same part number because of the other 2.0l turbo engine in audi to match the 2021 volkswagen tiguan idk what i did wrong but my car shakes when start a little bit then i didnt want to drive it i am scared i messed something up

Would you recommend the APR tune? I've always thought my daughter's 2018 Tiguan was a bit sluggish off the line. She's used to it, but it makes me a little nervous when pulling into traffic. Also, do you use fuel system cleaner regularly? I've read that it's important on the DI engines.
That's the exact reason I got the tune. Sluggish off the line. Always felt like it was in eco mode. It really woke the car up. I run the 87 octane tune now. I did the 91 tune for a while and it was a little more power, but gas prices went up soon after so I put the 87 tune back on. It's not a fast car, but now I don't worry about passing power/highway merging as much. Now separate from the tune there was a recall/TSB on the injector harness that we had fixed under warranty that would sometimes cause misfires/sluggish acceleration. I haven't been running any injector cleaner, but wouldn't be opposed to doing it since DI engines are known for carbon build-up issues.
Great video! Overall on a scale 1-10 what do you rate your Tiguan? The reason why I’m asking for your opinion...I own a 2015 Tacoma and I’ve been thinking of selling it and purchasing a Tiguan...thank you in advance...
I guess it depends on how you plan to use it. For us it's the main family hauler and for that I would give it a solid 7/10. Great build quality inside and out, handles well, comfortable. I have 2 young kids and it fits 2 car seats just fine with plenty of trunk space. We also tow a small fiberglass camper (around 2k pounds) and it does fine with that as well. In stock form it gets mid-upper 20s on the highway. Mine is modified a bit with larger tires, 1.5" lift, and an APR tune so I'm getting low 20s to high teens mixed driving. Most of our driving is local, but on longer trips mid 20s on the highway is normal. Coming from the Taco it definitely won't be as good offroad, but fuel mileage will be better and ride more comfortable. The small lift and larger tires do great on the forest service roads and mild trails we take occasionally while on vacation.
I just hit around 132,000 miles, got my Tiguan in 2018. It's been our only family car and will be paid off soon. It's been a rock for us, only issue as far as big repairs was fuel injector and fuel pump, but I could've avoided that with using seafoam's injector cleaner. More of a me issue than the cars fault there. I do as much of the work on it I can outside the oil change, just not worth it for me time wise/money wise. I would recommend it to most people, especially a young family like mine. We're going to get an Atlas next after we pay this off this year. I use my Tiguan like a hauler and truck as a carpenter I've hauld 16' boards with it. Looks funny but works.
@@BB-eg2gf I bought some Gumout fuel line cleaner after doing a decent amount of research and finding most products are the same. Have you found the same or heard anything different? I dropped 2 cans in each of our cars (19 Tiguan being one of them) and felt some of the hesitation on acceleration go away on mine at least. Otherwise like you said, just doing it for preventitive maitenance. I'm expecting to need a walnut blast at some point like on my last high mileage DI - have you had one yet?
@@ColinNiemczura No I haven't yet. Honestly I haven't even done my trany flush yet. I'm going to get that done next month though to be on the safe side. I feel like I always get different view points on getting a trany flush though. i'm hoping to get it to 250-300k miles if I can. I'm thinking about getting the Atlas next, but still keeping the tiguan.
This is one of the best step-by-step guide I have ever seen. Thank you!
