    How do you set that up? That would make things so easy for me as my wife loves the doors locked.

        If you have the ful size MFD it in the conv. settings - Auto lock, Auto Unlock.
        Doors lock when you go over 15km/h.
        Unlocks when driver removes key from ignition or 2 pulls of the (inside of course) door handle. 1st pull unlocks that door, second pull opens the door.

        If you dont have the full size MFD then VAGCOM is reqd.

          Look, all these people are lieing. You cant open the boot that easy.

          You need to stand on your head, facing north with a westerly wind, tounge out and push the buttons in the following order. unlock, lock, boot, lock, boot, unlock, lock and unlock at the same time, followed up by the boot for 2 seconds.

              On a Skoda, you go into the MFD and set it up (one of the 2 dozen+ options in there somewhere)

              Have you got the rain sensor pad on the windscreen just in front of the mirror?

              Your dealer is supposed to show you this stuff on delivery & help you set the car up how you like it.

                You set this via vagcom/vcds and enable the menu so you can turn it off and on from the full sized MFD. Takes about 15 minutes to activate.

                  The only time I find it annoying is when you're dropping someone off and they have gear in the boot. You actually need to turn the car off, take the keys out, and open the boot.

                        OK so some GTI's have a full access MFD and others don't? How does that work? Does a VW dealer have to activate it or something?

                          MY08 cars have full MFD. Also cars that were optioned with Sat Nav have full MFD.

                              You'll need the VCDS/VAGCOM software to do it, I don't know why they disable it but it takes about 10-15 minutes to enable as there is a decimal to hex and back conversion step for the RDL controller. You can then enable/disable the function from the MFD.

                              If you're in Brisbane I can turn it on at one of the GTG's otherwise you could try some people locally who have a cable.

                                Anyone in Sydney willing to help me out on this VCDS/VAGCOM thing?

                                Thanks!
