Thanks for your reply. To establish if my car has Towbar prep, is this something my car dealership (who I purchased the car from) can confirm or best to ask the Towbar installer to check this? Thanks

Hi Stratton, thanks for your comments and gives me some confidence hearing you are towing 1,400kg with no issues. Thanks again,

Good to hear your car tows very well. Looks like a large enough camper trailer too. Hopefully the 1.5 TSI will be the same. Thanks

Thanks Kenny, I located it there. My Gross train weight is 4,060 and The Gross vehicle weight is 2,260 so I should be ok to tow up to 1,800. I won’t be near this as max I will have is 300kg boat and 150kg trailer. I will be within the 750kg unbraked limit too so won’t require a trailer with brakes. Just really looking to see if anyone has experience with a tow/trailer for 150TSI model and how the Kodiaq performed. Thanks

I am unsure where this plate is located. The VIN is on the wind screen over the passengers side but unable to locate the actual plate on or around the door frame. I had previously checked the Towbar installers website and they referred to the plate which stated to take the kerbside weight away from the maximum weight and you will know what you can tow. I have just been unable to locate the plate. Any other ideas where it might be located? Thanks

Hi there, I have a 2019 Kodiaq 150 TSI, 7 seater. I am looking to get a Towbar fitted to take max weight of approx 500/600kg. I see the manual and online it states that it can take an unbraked weight of 750kg. Just wondering if anyone else has a Towbar for a trailer on the same model as me and if so, have you had any issues? do you have an my recommendations? Did the car have any per performance issues? Thanks in advance, Karl

EPC Light
Hi there, Was looking to see if anyone is having a similar issue to me with a 2019 Kodiaq 1.5 TSI Manual. Since I collected the Kodiaq in February the EPC light has come on approx 4/5. Each time it came on was just after I dropped my kids to school in the morning after approx 7KM. It literially happens on the same stretch of road. The first time it happened I turned off the engine for a few minutes and when I turned it back on the EPC light came on again and then a warning message appeared to say stop the engine as it was overheating. I called road side assist and they cleared the EPC fault and it was fine after that. Then it happened again a few weeks later. This time after the overheating warning appeared the car would not go over 2,000 RPM. This time after I turned off the engine for a few minutes and then back on it cleared the EPC fault and all was ok. Just worrying that the EPC light is appearing after approx 7KM. Is this a known fault with the car? Do I need a software update etc? Thanks, Karl.
