The listed engines of the VW Tiguan have a Start-Stop function, therefore we cannot use batteries produced in traditional technology. Matching batteries have dimensions 278x175x190 mm. We can install a battery made in EFB technology here or made in AGM technology. To avoid problems, You should rememeber to replace the standard battery with a standard one, EFB with EFB and AGM with AGM. All the batteries in the list above have a base hold-down B13.
