Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace 2020
The 2020 Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace offers versatile configurations to suit diverse needs. Available in three trims – Comfortline, Highline, and R-Line – each variant balances performance with practicality. The entry-level Comfortline features a 1.4L TSI engine (150PS) paired with 6-speed automatic transmission, while Highline and R-Line models upgrade to a 2.0L TSI (190PS) with 4MOTION AWD. Key highlights include adaptive cruise control across all trims, with R-Line adding sportier styling cues and 20-inch alloys. The 7-seater configuration remains standard, with sliding second-row seats improving cargo flexibility. Driver assistance systems like Front Assist and Lane Keeping are now standard, reflecting Volkswagen's emphasis on safety in this mid-cycle refresh.
Our comprehensive guide covers every aspect of the 2020 Tiguan Allspace for Malaysian buyers. You'll find detailed specifications for each model variant, including engine performance metrics, towing capacity (up to 2,500kg when properly equipped), and cargo volume (230L-1,775L with seats folded). We provide transparent pricing breakdowns covering both official pricing and common dealer packages. The buyer's guide section compares trim-level differences in infotainment (Discover Pro vs Composition Media systems) and comfort features (3-zone climate control availability). For owners, we've compiled maintenance cost estimates and identified common issues like the MIB3 system glitches reported in early production units. Our resources include the model's evolution timeline since its 2017 debut and updates on the facelifted 2021 model for prospective buyers considering newer alternatives.

Common Problem
Electrical Issues
Several owners of the 2020 Tiguan have reported electrical problems. These include flickering control panels for AC and seat warmers, issues with Apple CarPlay, and random behavior like windshield wipers activating without input. Some users have experienced complete failures of the video console and Bluetooth microphone. These issues seem to be recurrent, indicating potential faults in the electrical system.
AC and Climate Control Problems
The air conditioning system in the 2020 Tiguan has been a point of concern for several owners. Reports indicate repeated failures requiring multiple repairs. One user mentioned having their AC compressor replaced before reaching 20k miles due to the car blowing hot air. While not universal, these issues suggest that the AC system may be prone to malfunction.
Infotainment System Glitches
Problems with the infotainment system, particularly Apple CarPlay, are common across various models including the 2020 Tiguan. The system often starts on mute, requiring manual intervention to restore sound. This issue is persistent across different VW models and years, suggesting it might be a software problem that could potentially be fixed with an update.
Transmission Concerns
Some owners have expressed concerns about the transmission, although specific issues were not detailed in the discussions. There is mention of past valve body problems in other Volkswagen models, raising questions about the reliability of the transmission in the Tiguan.
General Reliability and Buyback Options
The overall reliability of the 2020 Tiguan seems mixed. Some users report satisfaction with their vehicles, while others have faced numerous issues leading them to consider trading in or pursuing buyback options. For recurring issues, contacting Volkswagen's customer relations department for potential buyback eligibility might be advisable.
