2020 VW Tiguan Input Please

[harbor]

Guys - I’m in London visiting youngest daughter who has a 2020 Tiguan purchased off-lease in 2023.
Car barely passed MOT (tires), so while I’m here we’ll be getting new rubber (Michelin, Vredestein or Continental), oil/filter 5W30 (Mobil 1 or Castrol), brakes bled, and maybe a antifreeze flush.
A quick forum search shows that the Tiguans are pretty stout with few issues.
Any input from forum members is welcome!

We've had our 2020 since brand new, and have had zero problems. Keep up with maintenance, especially a shorter OCI if driving conditions are more severe (ALL of them are ) and you'll be good. Lots of dedicated VW fans here, including several Tig owners, with solid advice to keep it in good shape for the long haul. Happy Motoring!

Londen England? Look into Uniroyal as they are a brand of Continental and marketed as "The Rain Tyre" in the UK. Uniroyal in the USA of course is a Michelin budget brand.

I was thinking across the pond too, but there is a London Township MI just south of Detroit and Ann Arbor. MOT tells me its "over there" though. I have Conti DSW 06 Pluses on mine now and they did pretty good in the ice and snow around here.

Wow, definitely not my experience. . Glad they work for you. Best tires I have ever run in the wet though.

Look into Kleber and Pirelli tyres also.
