2010 is a common rail engined vehicle, so post Pd.
An older Tiguan is quite reliable on the whole; as long as its been serviced / looked after.
Personally, look out for;
leaky sunroof (if fitted)
oil leaks
tyre wear (front lower arm, rear bushes worn)
broken rear springs
leaky tailgate (check the numberplate lights for rust stains)

It shares it's platform and many components with the Mk5 and 6 Golf, so on the whole pretty solid and reliable.
We changed our Mk1 for a new one in 2021. I missed the old car and considered having another instead of the van for day to day stuff, but then the prices went silly and I wasn't going to pay more for an older car than the one I'd just sold.
