Spanner can help turn your car details into an advert.
Could suit you if…
- Your usual group fits within 5 seats, including the driver. Check passenger space and any child-seat fit in person.
- You regularly make longer journeys: diesel may fit that pattern better than a routine of mostly short trips. Compare actual running costs.
- You prefer a higher seating position: this SUV/crossover type may suit. Try getting in and out; the body shape alone does not prove extra seats or four-wheel drive.
Think twice if…
- You need to carry more than 5 people together: the advert records 5 seats, including the driver.
- Most journeys are short school runs or local trips: check whether this diesel has a particulate filter and what longer runs its handbook requires.
- You need predictable ownership costs: at around 10 years old and 198,685 km, check maintenance records and upcoming work. Mileage alone does not tell you the car's condition.
This is general guidance about this type of car and your needs — not an inspection or approval of this individual car.
This is a second‑generation Tiguan (launched 2016) — most Irish diesel examples use the 1.6 or 2.0 TDI engines paired with a manual gearbox. Diesels of this age commonly have a DPF and EGR system (some Euro6 2.0 TDIs also use AdBlue dosing), so short-trip urban use can cause soot-related issues; the manual gearbox avoids VW’s DSG-specific concerns but means clutch wear is one to watch. Optional 4MOTION all‑wheel drive exists on some cars and brings extra drivetrain items to inspect and service.
- DPF/EGR condition: ask for records of successful regenerations and watch for persistent DPF warning lights or excessive soot on the exhaust on start/idle.
- Clutch wear and pedal feel: check for slipping under load, a high biting point, and ask if the clutch has been replaced (likely on high-mileage 10‑year cars).
- Turbo condition and smoke: look for boost lag, blue/black smoke on acceleration and any oil leaks around the turbo/intercooler pipes.
- Manual gearbox operation: check for crunching or rough synchros (especially 1st/2nd) and smooth gear selection throughout the range.
- If fitted with 4MOTION, inspect propshaft/rear diff for play and service history; also check underside and rear arches for corrosion or stone‑chip damage.
