Always drive at a constant speed through sand and mud; do not shift gears manually and do not stop.
Never drive too fast through sand and mud. The wheels may spin and the vehicle can get stuck. If the tires no longer grip, turn the steering wheel back and forth slightly in short, quick movements. This can improve front wheel traction when driving in sand and mud.
Driving through sand
Never reduce tire inflation pressure before driving through sand ⇒ . If you have reduced the tire pressure to drive through sand, make sure to correct the tire pressure afterwards before driving any further. Driving with reduced tire pressure can make you lose control of the vehicle and increase the risk of serious or fatal injuries.
Driving through mud
Do not change your speed or your direction. The tires can lose their grip in mud. If the vehicle skids, steer in the direction the vehicle is sliding to try to get it back under control.
Warning
Driving through sand and mud can be dangerous. The vehicle can skid out of control and crash, causing serious injuries. Always drive carefully when driving in sand and mud.Warning
Driving on tires that are not inflated to the correct cold tire inflation pressure can cause an accident with serious or fatal injuries.Volkswagen Tiguan Owners Manual > Consumer information: Volkswagen service information
