2014 Tiguan EPC/Engine light on, rough start
10

Asked by GuruLYV7H Mar 26, 2019 at 11:08 AM about the 2014 Volkswagen Tiguan AWD Comfortline

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My vehicle actually had a rough start about two weeks ago and it shut down
when I tried to leave the basement garage. Tried to start several times and
run fine after five minutes, but the engine light was on. Sp I sent the car to
the dealer and got replaced all the spark plugs and one broken coil as well
as oil/air separator. Runs better than before.

However, now I have the same problem again, the vehicle shakes a little bit
when you start to drive for the first 3-5 minutes and then everything is fine.
But now the EPC light is on. Does anyone know the possible causes?
Thanks.

Runs okay this afternoon, the EPC light is off. No sure if I still need to send it in for inspection. Gonna monitor for couple of days.

Couldn't even start the vehicle after a week. Sent in to the dealer and told me to do the intake cleaning (which I did a year ago). Doesn't make sense to me.
