Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • "Auto" boot opening

    The boot on our 2014 135 TDI Highline wagon literally opens automatically. Whenever it feels like it! On about 5 occasions we have come outside to find the boot open although no one has pressed the button on the fob. Even had the cops wake us up at 4am one night because of it. Each time the car has been locked and the boot just opens. Anyone know what the issue might be? I can't find much on Google.
    Looking for:- RS4 B7 Avant.
    Current:- Amarok V6 Sportline; Mazda CX-9 Azami AWD
    Previous - Mk 6 R manual; Mk 7 R manual; Passat 130 TDi Wagon. Mk 7.5 Wolfsburg Wagon.

    Even if the car is locked? Mine obviously doesn't auto open but I know that it flat out won't open at all even with the boot handle if I hit the lock button when I leave. That could rule your handle out as the problem if so.

      Very strange to say the least...

      Will definitely keep an eye on mine now also, never had an issues thus far.

      Would be interesting to find the outcome of the issue. Have you taken to back to the dealer yet?

      Being a 130TDI Highline it should still be under warranty!

        Check the switch inside on the drivers door hasnt got something stuck in it.

        Mine wont ever open if car is locked unless I hold the button down for 5 secs. When I do it unlocks a little bit then opens
