GOALRun the first test described in this guide and record the result for 2026 tiguan sos/myvw connection setup.
EQUIPMENT

STEPS
- Use the official myVW app, create/sign in to the owner account and follow the vehicle-addition workflow with the correct VIN.
- Complete the in-vehicle authorization and privacy/connectivity choices while parked.
