The current Golf is actually lighter than the car it replaced.

Not when I'm sitting in it :whistle:

Don't think so .... I've not found one ... and I agree, the fuel gauge is not easy to read at all. This is one area where the old dials are much better ...

If you Google image search Tiguan Active Info Display, it looks like all the needles are red.

Changing the needle colour should have been a simple built in setting. It's as easy as changing the wallpaper on your phone...

Sorry, just in case something got lost in translation, I am not saying the setting is there, just that it would have been really easy for them to build it into the menus/software.

It should be possible to tweak the Display with VCDS / OBD11 I imagine.
