Pre-MOT Inspection Checklist for Volkswagen Tiguan Aspace Elegnce Owners

These checks follow this Volkswagen Tiguan Aspace Elegnce's own most-recorded failure strings, starting with what a tester is most likely to flag on a Volkswagen Tiguan Aspace Elegnce.

• the brakes — “brake pads less than 1.5 mm thick”

  Look through the spokes of each wheel at the pad — less than 3mm of friction material, or a lip on the disc edge, is the usual failure. Check the handbrake holds on a slope with a few clicks, not at the top of its travel.

• the wipers and washers — “wipers does not clear the windscreen effectively”

  Run the wipers with the screen wet: they should clear it in one sweep without smearing or juddering. Top the washer bottle up and check both jets hit the screen.

• the coil springs — “coil spring fractured or broken”

  Look up inside each wheel arch with a torch, all the way round the spring. A snapped spring usually breaks at the very bottom coil, where a quick glance will not reach.
