  • Bicycle carrier on the AHK – support load only 55kg vFL

    The VW operating instructions say that the load on the carrier (the carrier’s own weight plus the weight of the bicycles is 75 kg) is stated at the same time that the support load of 55 kg must not exceed. I have an understanding problem ??

  • Replace 12 volt battery every 4 years at the latest

    In the T-Cross log it is stated under inspection work that the 12 volt vehicle battery is to be tested, and if necessary, at least every 4 years. Does VW improve the standard quality of the batteries or is this also intended for other start-stop vehicles? So far, I was of the opinion that these vehicles would have an extra higher quality battery and starter system because of the increased wear. Or is this the VW contribution to environmental protection and the Resource conservation? The usual life of 12 volt batteries should actually be much longer. A fixed, still extremely short, replacement interval has not yet been reached. The recycling industry will be happy about the additional sales anyway. And the manufacturing industry about the increased sales. Not to forget the workshops. In the case of start-stop vehicles, a software-like adjustment to the vehicle is usually planned. But I didn’t really expect this technical poverty certificate. That batteries “agen” is really no secret. But that a fixed exchange period is given by the vehicle manufacturer is unfortunately new to me. So far, I have only replaced defective 12 volt batteries for my vehicles.

  • Air pressure accessories rims

    I have mounted 18 inch rims from the accessories with the tire size 225/45/18, but since the COC only shows the tyre size 215/45/18, I find nowhere a suitable tyre pressure value for the 225 he tire. I have now filled in 0.1 bar more than for the 215 he tire or someone has a better idea

  • Emergency button in the T-Cross

    After having a conversation with the VW customer hotline today, I asked the lady about the emergency call button.Some will already have the information, I just wanted to document it again so that everyone of the questions can read this information here.

  • Save Taigo Style Settings

    Hello, I have a new Taigo Style 1.0TSI and have the problem that different settings have to be changed at each start e.g. enable high-light assistant and especially deactivate lane holding assistant Especially the annoying lane assistant is very annoying in local traffic. Does someone also have the problems and there is a solution? With my Audi Q5 you can adjust all this and he always remembers the last setting Greeting Roland

  • Almost only motorway (daily 70 km): T-cross makes sense?

    Hello, I would like to buy a new car soon. At the moment I have an Opel Corsa C, built in 2003 with 60 hp, which is not quite optimal for the daily commuting (simple route 35 km, almost only motorway). I find the T-Cross very beautiful, and because of the clarity I would like to sit higher. In the near future a 1.5-litre with 150 hp should appear in Germany (a four-cylinder 1.5-litre PSI engine with 130 hp is already available – but only in developing countries Do you think this would be a good car for my purpose, or should I rather consider something else? Thank you for the help

  • Day-time running light

    Moin together, can someone tell me if the daytime running light is always LED at the T-Cross. Or do you get this only via the “light and sight package”? In the price list only “day driving light” is mentioned under the equipment overview, the “light and sight package” is then called “LED daytime driving light”. In the configurator, on the other hand, the “light and sight package” is “only” about the daytime driving light. I am confused.

  • Technical differences 1.0TSI with 95PS/110PS/115PS/128PS?

    Does anyone know which technical parameters VW uses to produce the different power levels? The 95hp is probably the basis, along with the original 115hp and now 110hp strong brother and, as the most powerful in the bundle, the 128hp of the Nivus, which seems to have the same basic motor (“1.0TSI”), however. Why did VW reduce the 115hp gasoline to 110hp?

  • Vibrations

    Hello T-Gross municipality We bought ourselves a T-Gross annual car. He had run 4000km and first registration was in March 2021. Now we got him yesterday everything great, now I notice when I stand at the traffic light in the first gear and the speed goes on 900 vibrations do not come on the handlebar you easily at the seat, clutch bale. The car makes the impression whether it trembles. Does this come through the 3 cylinder or do you have that too. I have absolutely no idea when I lightly increase the gas It is no longer there at 1000 rpm.

  • Questions about the configurator

    Hello guys. In the configurator for the T-Cross you can choose either “phone interface with inductive charging function” or “phone interface “Comfort” with inductive charging function” for the phone. If I don’t take either of the two options, do I have no hands-free device? From the config and the VW side this doesn’t quite open up to me. Thank you
