Which Tiguan generation should you buy?
2013 to 2017: the small Tiguan
Compact and fun to drive, with a 2.0L turbo. Old now, and older turbos need careful maintenance history.
2018 to 2024: the long-wheelbase Tiguan
Much bigger, with an optional small third row, 4Motion AWD and an eight-speed automatic. The 2022 refresh improved the tech.
Tiguan pros and cons
What owners like
- Solid, European driving feel
- Optional third row
- 4Motion AWD is good in winter
What owners complain about
- Repairs and parts cost more than Japanese rivals
- Third row is very small
- Fuel economy is average
What should you check before buying a used Tiguan?
- 2.0L turbo: look for coolant leaks around the water pump and thermostat housing. These are common on this engine.
- Older cars: ask for timing chain and oil change records.
- All years: test 4Motion, the screen and phone connection, read the full Carfax and run the VIN for open recalls.
Those are the Tiguan-specific items. The general checks for any used car are in my pre-purchase inspection checklist, and before any money moves, run a lien check.

The Tiguan suits buyers who want a European feel at a mainstream price. Get a 2020 to 2022, insist on service records, and budget a bit more for maintenance.
