Re: What Next?

We had a nice 2017 Tiguan before we purchased an XC40 - I liked it but the interior always felt a little utilitarian. My wife couldn't get on with the hard VAG seats hence moving over to Volvo.
I often look longingly at Tiguan's still now despite us now having an XC60, especially those in R-Line spec.

Re: Is this apple car play?

Its the correct socket however confirm with the dealer it actually has the CarPlay software loaded and not just Android Auto. When we purchased our old XC40 we had the dealer retrofit the kit and they load the software dependent on what phone you have. They only loaded CarPlay and not Android Auto, ...

Re: T3 Petrol Manual clutch problems

When we had our XC40 (T3, 163bhp), one of the many issues we had was the clutch pedal sticking down - this started circa 20k miles but was never resolved as the car was traded in at 24k miles
