Hey, that was very helpful! I haven't actually changed anything on my car. The problems started about 2 weeks ago. It's been a while since my last service, at about 220350 km. Hope this information helps! I'll ask the garage about the fuse for the exterior door handle electronics. Thank you!

Yes, that sounds really strange. But I'm glad my information was helpful. With the additional details, I would definitely recommend that you have your car's battery checked as well. The symptoms could indicate a weak battery - especially the flickering of the lights. In my Tiguan, this was also a sign that the battery was about to give up the ghost. Have you ever had problems with your battery? If not, it could also be the alternator. Keep us posted on what the garage says. I'm curious now too! Good luck getting the problem under control soon!

Hello, I have had a similar problem with my VW Tiguan (2006, diesel). I'm not a car expert, but I know a bit about it. The repair in the workshop went smoothly. I had to have the fuse for the outside door handle electronics replaced. It cost me 60 euros. Maybe that's your problem too? But I would need more information to be able to help more precisely. How long has the problem been there? Did you make any changes to your car before the problems started? I would be delighted if you could give me more details!
