For your 2021 Volkswagen Tiguan SEL Premium R-Line I recommend the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e43ZR as it is confirmed to fit all models of your Tiguan. This hitch has a hidden crosstube meaning that once installed only the receiver itself will be visible, and the 2" receiver gives you the most options when it comes to accessories like a bike rack, cargo carrier, or ball mount.
If you are planning on towing a trailer with your Tiguan you will need a vehicle... view full answer...
There are two versions of the Thule T2 bike rack with only difference being the size hitch they fit. If you have a 2 inch hitch version you'd want a hitch like the etrailer part # e43ZR which is this size or if you have the 1-1/4 inch version you'd want the part # C12177 which is this size.
If you pick the correct hitch size for your rack you would not need to use any adapters. view full answer...
The Thule WingBar Roof Rack System you referenced that consists of # TH711220 for the two Wingbar Evo Crossbars and # TH710401 for the Raised Rail Feet will physically mount to the raised side rails of your 2016 VW Tiguan without issue.
There is indeed a chance, as with any roof rack, that the crossbars might interfere with the opening of a sunroof on a vehicle if equipped. I can't be sure if you will have any interference on the Tiguan but I can give you a measurement that will allow... view full answer...
It is odd that some of the 2021 Volkswagen Tiguan models don't have the weldnuts built into the frame but we do have a solution.
I recommend completely avoiding this with the Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver - Custom Fit - 2" # SH49ZR. This custom fit hitch uses a different installation process so the lack of weldnuts will not be an issue. The Stealth Hitch replaces the factory reinforcement beam on the back of your vehicle.
The hitch has a tongue weight of 350 lbs and is only for... view full answer...
Pulse width modulation is the taillight wiring configuration that is on a lot of modern cars including your 2010 Volkswagen Tiguan. This means that your taillights circuits send varying pulses of power along one wire to operate the different lighting functions of the tail lights. Instead of having a separate wire for each taillight function, (turn signal, brake, taillight), the engineers found a way to carry all of the taillight circuits on one wire. This saves them money because now the... view full answer...
For your 2018 Volkswagen Tiguan 4Motion Canadian model the Curt kit part # C56403 is the correct fit. This installs easily by plugging inline with the taillight harnesses on your vehicle. view full answer...
The connector you found on your 2011 Volkswagen Tiguan is great news. That is a standard 7-way connector plug which means to install trailer wiring all you'd need is the # HM40975 which plug connect right to that and give you both a 4-way and a 7-way. This install is just a matter of plugging the connector in and does not require any additional wiring. view full answer...

The Tekonsha T-One part # 118675 that you referenced is a confirmed fit for your 2016 Volkswagen Tiguan and will give you a 4-way trailer wiring connector. I could not get any information online for the part number you referenced so I am not sure what functionality it would have in comparison.
The 4-way covers all of the taillight functions.
I attached an install video for this harness for you to check out on a similar 2016 Tiguan as well. view full answer...
With the Tekonsha T-One Wiring Harness # 118675 already installed on your 2016 VW Tiguan (thank you for your business!), you will just need to upgrade it to a 7-Way connector with the 12V pin activated to use with the Curt Echo # C51180 for powering brakes on your trailer. Any trailer brake controller will require this type of upgrade, although the Echo absolutely offers the easiest install process and operation thereafter.
To upgrade the 4-Way you will just need the Wiring Kit # ETBC7L.... view full answer...
Yes! The Class III Hitch I recommend is the # C13381 Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" For 2019 Volkswagen Tiguan 1.4 TSI R-Line
I've also attached a video link to our website that shows exactly how this hitch is installed on a 2019 Volkswagen Tiguan, likely incredibly similar to your vehicle.
You also may want to invest in a plug to keep dirt out of the receiver such as the # C22272 and a pin and clip to secure any accessory you wish to attach to the hitch such... view full answer...
On the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C13381 uses M10-1.5 bolts to hold it in place. What we run into all the time is fouling of the weld nut located in the frame rails of the VW Tiguan. I recommend using a nylon or wire brush and some lubricant to clean it out. Test again with the bolt if it will not thread at that point clean the weld nut with a M10-1.5 tap and all will be well.
Check out the video we made on how the process works. view full answer...

For your 2019 VW Tiguan the best bike rack for your hatch is the Yakima FullBack 3 Bike Rack - Trunk Mount - Adjustable Arms # Y02633. This comes with the security for the rack and the bikes. I recommend the bike adapter bar # Y02531 or similar for any step thru bike frames and the smaller kids bikes. This bar is the smallest option for small kids bikes creating a top frame rail between the handlebars and seat post. view full answer...
The Tekonsha Zero Contact Harness # 119250KIT that you referenced is a universal kit that will work on your 2018 VW Tiguan. With that being said, there are now custom fit options available for your 2018 model Tiguan that will be a MUCH easier installation.
For this, I recommend the Curt T-Connector # C56403. This will install by simply plugging into factory ports located inside the rear cargo area of the vehicle. Once the connections are made, you will just need to run the hot lead up... view full answer...
The shortest WingBar Evo crossbars Thule recommends for your Tiguan are the 50 inch crossbars. If you went any shorter than that, they wouldn't be able to attach to the roof rack feet. This WingBar Evo roof rack would consist of the following parts:
• Thule WingBar Evo 50 inch crossbars in silver as part # TH711300 or black as part # TH711320
• Evo Raised Rail Feet, part # TH710401
