Yes, that's why I suspect a partially stuck thermostat valve, and some research shows this problem has occured on other BMW's too.
The Tiguan is also a 2.0 turbo, so should be a fair comparison to the 2.0 turbo of the BMW in terms of engine heat creation.

BTW, what engine have you in the VW Tiguan?
