Auto Closing Sunroof & Windows Tricks and Tips?

definitely closes on holding down the key fob, but its not one hold down and release, you have to keep it pressed down untill it completely shuts which is a pain. wish that could be changed.

Anyone who's showing off walking away from their car with the roof opens deserves to get wet LOL.
I've asked Mav about it will have to wait and see.

Funny you mention that... My MINI has a sunroof and I was shuffling cars around one very rainy night at the front of my place and, due to carrying lots of stuff, I put the key in my mouth.. Without realising I opened the windows and sunroof and the car was flooded! I've only done that once...so far.

Yeah it is a nifty bit of VAG-COM'ing so hopefully is possible on MK6. The car still has to be armed and locked though.

With rain-sensing wipers activated and the car locked and it starts raining the windows DON'T automatically close. I had to close mine from inside my office by holding down the keylock until the windows closed. It could be that it requires torrential rain on the sensor before the windows close automatically, but I didn't want to risk driving home with a soggy bottom to prove that it works.

They should go up in the same time it takes for the wipers to sense it's raining.. I'm not sure if it still bases that on the sensitivity setting on the wiper stalk.
