Wait at least 3 hours after driving or check in the morning before use.
Unscrew the cap from the tire valve stem and keep it in a safe place.
Press the gauge firmly onto the valve stem to get a reading.
Match the pressure to your Tiguan's recommended specification above.
Temperature Note: Tire pressure can change by about 1 PSI for every 10°F temperature change. In winter, you may need to add air more frequently. In summer, avoid over-inflation.
All tire pressure data is sourced directly from Volkswagen manufacturer specifications and official owner's manuals for the Tiguan.
We clearly show PSI and BAR values for both front and rear tires, organized by model year for easy reference.
Proper tire pressure is critical for vehicle safety, fuel efficiency, and tire longevity. We ensure accuracy in every specification.
The recommended tire pressure for Volkswagen Tiguan models ranges from 29 to 36 PSI, depending on the year and tire size. The most common pressure is 32 PSI. Always check your specific model year in the table above for exact specifications.
Yes, in many Volkswagen Tiguan models, front and rear tires may have different recommended pressures. This is designed to optimize handling, tire wear, and fuel efficiency. Always follow the manufacturer's specifications for your specific year shown in the table above.
Tire pressure changes by about 1 PSI for every 10°F temperature change. In colder weather, you may need to add air to maintain proper pressure. Always check tire pressure when tires are cold (before driving) for the most accurate reading.
The tire pressure information sticker is typically located on the driver's side door jamb of your Volkswagen Tiguan. It may also be found inside the fuel door or glove compartment. This sticker shows the OEM recommended pressures for your specific vehicle.
