• Heat can reduce battery capacity over time.
• Battery inspection is scheduled every 10,000 miles.
• Load testing helps identify remaining battery life.

A battery may lose capacity gradually and then fail suddenly. These symptoms can also involve the charging system, which is why a complete battery appointment includes charging-system output testing. If your Tiguan’s battery is more than a few years old, testing can help guide the next step.

• Watch for slow cranking, especially on a cold morning.
• Note dim lights or electronics that reset during startup.

• Parts stores may offer a lower battery-only purchase price.
• Dealership service includes battery load testing and charging-system output testing.
• Service also includes terminal and hold-down inspection.

The process is designed to determine whether the battery has usable capacity and whether the vehicle is charging it correctly.
