I totally agree with you that this car is way better than Japanese and Korean cars but not as good as earlier models. I own Audi Q5 (2012), Skoda Laura (2013) & Tiguan (2023). Built quality is good but not at par with my Laura or Audi.
I want to upgrade highline headlights LED VW mentions that led headlight upgrades void the warranty Please let me know which is recommended one without void in warranty
It would be more better if you post a video on sound quality of the newly installed subwoofer. Though one can't clearly say anything about the quality in the video, atleast we will get an idea over it. It was nice to hear that it can be changed without voiding the warranty. Is there anyway that we can change the headlights of highline with the one like in the topline model?
Bhai, I want to install subwoofer and headlight in tiagun highline but I dont want to lose warranty. Any option or input on this .....pl let me know. Taigun is excellent car if igonore small things like materials used for interior and few small issues..........Engine, Driving dynamics is next level .......no other brand offer this.
It is your choice to get it done, but we cant guarantee on the warranty… the car that was released from factory all the equipment and electrical stuff should be the same for warranty to be valid. But having said that , its a trusted product so it should be a safe mod
This is a complex question to answer honestly. Technically it should void warranty if you have an electrical failure due to the addition. for me atleast i am clocking close to 40000 kms and i dint see any issue. Its a little risk you need to take.
Thanks for another nice and informative video Dharmesh. If it’s possible, let’s have a WhatsApp group for the taigun owners so we help each other buying and even fixing niggles.

Hi Dharmesh informative video what ever you said was absolutely correct audio system is not up to the mark is there a dedicated sub woofer pin in the back of the system or how did u attached the sub and external add on pin to connect the sub to system even I am trying to upgrade
Hi swaroop The connection is from the dash itself, they used an extension cable to get the connection , it was neatly done. th-cam.com/video/KOnkluxi6Gw/w-d-xo.html
Dharmesh, How good is light distributed when LEDs are installed in Reflectors ?Which is the case in your Taigun? Wanted to know this because I am planning the same in my Taigun Highline AT ?😊
I guess its alright, its definitely better than halogen, but i think if u can wait and get projectors installed it would be more effective. But i don't have any complaints on the lights to now
The LED that you upgraded to says 130W, which is more than the stock lamps. Are the wires still intact for you or did you change the wires? Also, when you went for your service, did the service advisor raise any issue for this headlight upgrade?
Only Subwoofer does not make that much difference. I have installed moco 250 watts sub woofer today. That sub woofer is so excellent that stock speakers in the car are a bottle neck. Will change the speakers in next month to see the difference. Did you happen to change the stock speakers too?
No i did not.. i didnt want to overdo the upgrade.. i was missing the base, as skoda gives a spare wheel sub and that sounds great and Taigun didn’t,I am ok with the current output. Its not the best but its pretty good
I bought Taigun Highline MT last month. The high beam light is really bad. Can we upgrade the highbeam to LED only ? and leave the low beam as it is with the halogen lights?
Generally a few led lights have high and low in the same light, you can try at the nearest accessory showroom for more clarity. You should definitely be able to get.. as a few cars have separate lights for high and low beam
@@DharmeshDaula thanks for the response. I made a video of the problem I am facing with the high beam right now. th-cam.com/video/eywmEE1WuyU/w-d-xo.html Was the high beam dipper response as bad for you too? The service center is telling me this is working perfectly. Comparing it with my previous cars- Scorpio ,Santro and Ameo , I feel the Taigun's high beam is kind of useless. I showed it to the SC and as per them , this is working perfectly fine.
@@DharmeshDaula yes, this is the highline model with Halogen headlights. Even my previous cars had Halogen headlights but the response of high beam was way better.
After lot of fighting and taking their same model car outside in dark and showing, finally they have acknowledged the issue and they said they will check the problem further. But they still do not have any idea what the issue is.
Hey Dharmesh, I booked the same variant and Color . I currently own polo 1.5 TDI. How satisfied are you with the Taigun car? And can u provide info on LED lights u have upgraded with ?
Hey sandeep... i am very much satisfied by my purchase. Have completed 2k km (city and ORR combined). The has great stability at high speeds and is good in city, there a few things i would have loved it could have done better, but nonetheless, its a great buy and most importantly its a head turner. Theres nothing like it on the road.. I will be posting my 2500km review in a couple of days. Please stay tuned for much more detailed info
Good job. I have topline MT variant with LED stock projector head lights. The throw is great in ideal dark conditions. When an opposite traffic glare is present, I can't see much distance. I am considering the other dummy headlight can be upgrade (from VW if available or off market) to Xenon projector lamps. Any related info on Xenon projector for dummy holders in Taigun?
Interesting to see these informative videos on Taigun being put up by you. Keep ‘em coming. Also buddy are you absolutely sure that these mods won’t void the warranty?
Yes these are plug and play and we need to go with the specifications mentioned.. either halogen, led or anything else it shouldnt be extracting more power or shouldnt be of a cheaper quality.. And to be really frank.. any small change u do or donot do, the service centre will have a reason for u to not claim any damage under warranty(that is the reason extended warranty is not recommended)
Hi Dharmesh, I also own the same variant, your video information is very helpful. What is the cost for these LED light upgrades, and This just bulbs get replaced or any relays or something like that also added? Please reply
Hi. Thanks for your video. Nice to see a review from user perspective without any endorsement or marketing stuff. Hope VW warranty doesn't become void with an after market headlamps and woofer. Are LED lamps penetrative enough during rains or foggy conditions?
Thank you prabhu :) . throw is very good from the led. I have not replaced my fog halogen lamps. Halogen always work better in foggy conditions. I will try to post a pic of the light throw.
Hi Dharmesh, Glad to see you picking a subwoofer for Taigun. I do miss that thump sometimes.Anyways, i shall think of it after some months. I bought it for Christmas and I’m loving this car. But for some reason VW Apps aren’t accessible using either a hotspot or home wifi. Do you know why..? Screen just goes blank after i touch the login button on infotainment system.

Led in a reflector unit is a nightmare for oncoming traffic. Also the heat generated is higher.

Hi! From where can I get the headlight LED's?
There are available in all the accessory shops.. just check with them
Do you know if the after market headlights for taigun are available now?
I have a Trigun 1 lit Highline and had taken 48k service package and extended warranty, if I install this LED ,will it affect Warrenty?
Dharmesh,
What do u think of 7D floor mats ? U have opted for Floor mats from VW Accessories?
I couldn't find 7D mats the time of my delivery, so the best option i had was to go with 3D mats fom VW
Does it show any error in dashboard? Check light symbol

Is there audio out in stock oe system....for subwoofer...
Hai Dharmesh. Good to see your video. Can you please confirm after changing the lights car warranty won't be void
Technically it shouldnt as you woyld be replacing the bulb within the wattage range of the original bulb. And leds operate at a very low wattage
Could you please make a video on how to operate the MID as well 🙏🏼
