Some Volkswagen Tiguan owners report experiencing continual oil leaks around 85,000 miles, which can lead to further damage and impact vehicle performance. Common causes of these leaks include gasket failures and system faults, with issues stemming from worn gaskets, corroded oil lines, improperly attached oil filters, or leaky drain plugs. Identifying the specific source of the leak is crucial for determining the necessary repairs and preventing potential engine damage. Additionally, gasket repairs can be costly, especially if multiple gaskets are involved or if the leaks have caused further issues. Regular maintenance and timely repairs are essential for preventing oil leaks and ensuring the longevity of the Volkswagen Tiguan. Owners experiencing these issues are advised to consult with a certified mechanic or Volkswagen dealership for accurate diagnosis and effective resolution.
