Driving home from work the car just stopped. EPC light came on. Checked oil and it was down 3 quarts. Towed to dealer. They replaced 2 Control Modules. $2000. That didn't fix the problem. More diagnostics and they said it was timing Chain. Added another $1700. I added a Carbon cleaning because they said the cylinders were dirty. The total bill ended up to be $4,700. Now I'm adding 1 quart of oil every 3000 miles. Oil changes were done regularly and other maintenance too. I have read that timing chains, carbon buildup, and oil burning are common problems with Tiguan. There was also recall on timing chains up to 2016. Figures. Not my year.
