    Photobucket has this as an option ready to copy and paste for every image you upload.
    Yeah, that's what I tried (the [ img] and [ / img] without the spaces) and all it put in the post was the link.. I took the link from the address bar in Explorer. Will keep looking in Photobucket..

      Hi Rocket36 / passatpout,

      Thank you for your help and image..

      I did that but no luck.

      Did you unplug your car battery before you tried that?

      Thanks

        The link on it's own is: http://i624.photobucket.com/albums/t...g/DSC00268.jpg

        With the code: [ img ]http://i624.photobucket.com/albums/tt321/alpout/Passat%20Manual%20Unlocking/DSC00268.jpg[ /img ]

        With the code but without the spaces:


        Trust me - it works... It works for any image link on the internet!

          Nope, I left my battery connected.

          Might be time to call VW about it... it should still have roadside assistance available..

                  You can alter this using Vagcom/VCDS to disarm the alarm when a key is used to unlock and/or arm the alarm when a key is used to lock. By default these are disabled.

                    Hi Guys,

                    After 1 week of discussion with vw road assist. No luck.. they suggested to brick my window...

                    I was thinking to cut my sunroof rubber if possible.. since rubber is cheaper than window glass.

                    Any other ??

                    maybe cut my front grilll..??


                    thanks

                      Is there a way to get under the bonnet and pull the cable from under/behind the bumper?

                        Hi Passatpout,

                        Could you possible to check where is the cable going exactly?

                        Thanks

                          If you ever need to smash glass to get into your vehicle check availability and price before smashing. The front windscreen is often the best option as they are replaced far more frequently than any other (and so are more available and cheaper than the others)

                            in short, without being rude, no, the suggestion was for you to have a look.

                              I find it hard to believe that a car would be manufactured without a fail-safe for the door locks/electrics.

                              From the previous posts I assume that you have tried the plastic key as per the manual.

                              This kind of highlights that possibly VWAssist isnt all that good either
