Hi everyone, I’ve just placed an order for an r-line 204ps ehybrid. Wandering if anyone knows what the suspension set up is on the hybrids as DCC with adaptive dampers isn’t available as an option on the hybrids however it says that rear shock absorbers come as standard but no mention of whether these are adaptive and no mention of the front suspension.

It’s not an option because it’s standard

Yes, DCC Pro is standard an all engines except 1.5 eTSI 150 HP and 2.0 TDI 150 HP, where it can be ordered as optional.
On 1.5 eTSI 130 HP it seems that you cannot have DCC Pro at all, it is not standard and no option to order it also, at least in my country.
Anyway you can easily check: go to profiles, select individual, click on settings (little gear icon on the top right of the individual profile) and if you have DCC Pro installed, there you should have the DCC option and 15 levels to set between comfort and sport.
In non DCC suspension, that 15 level setting is not present.

Also, a lot of owners say that the DCC Pro suspension is loud on cobblestones or uneven roads, so there's that, test it on some bad roads. :D
If it's silent, either you are lucky or they forgot to installt it on your car. :D

DCC pro Comes as standard on ehybrid. Have it on mine and makes bumpy roads smooth even with 20” wheels, well worth getting if not fitted as standard

People who have the DCC pro, do you hear the cluncking sound when going over bumps? I heard it when I test drove the car, but that was many months ago and the dealer said that some people report the noise gone after some software update. Also drove the new Kodiaq that also has the same system and there was no noise.

Apparently it has been sorted and the new models should not have this problem.
I found this from a comment on a commercial video on youtube, from VW about DCC Pro.
For Tiguan sholud be the same like for Passat as the DCC Pro system is the same.

I have the ehybrid with DCC pro and have to say it is very good! the boise is neglible and the ride is amazing. Many features in the mk3 make it just so easy to drive once you've had some time with it.
