    Closing power tail gate in Superb via middle console?

    Hi there,

    I know we can open tail gate via the middle console.

    Since the new Karoq able to close it, I am just wondering whether or not it is possible to close it as well for Superb MY2017 onwards.

    Thanks for the link so it is possible.
    Can anyone enable it (centre console button) to close the tail gate using obdeleven/vcds in Australia? and how?

    U need a VCP tool, which is a dealer only accessible tool.
    VCDS or OBD11 can't enable it - as far as I know

    Oh I see.
    Too late for me, I serviced my car two weeks ago.
    Can anyone request for this to be enabled for your next service and update here?
    Thanks.

    Ive got a RS Oct (and coded a few other Octs), Ive enabled via VCDS/OBD11

    You would like to think it would be the same? Isnt it MQB platform?

    I also disabled all the beeping that comes with it too
    2 changes in the Adaptations Menu, might not be English, maybe that's where people are getting tipped up.

    I'm trying to do this for my Arteon but I can't find these options at all.

    Anybody been able to do this yet on a Superb Sedan?

    Also I'm looking to enable the "kick to close" function on the tailgate (kick to open works on the Arteon, but you have to press the button, pull on it, use the remote) if you want it to close.

    I'd love to be able to do this with our Octavia RS.

    I'm not of any local Superb owners having done this yet.
    Probably cause u need a VCP tool.

    The Superb has Kick-To-Close already.
    I'm not sure what the coding is for that, if looking to enable it.

    Ok so this is interesting....
    In the Arteon:
    09-Central Electrics
    10-Adaptations
    ENG141634-ENG142259-Verdecksteuergeraet-Kick_and_close
    Value = Not Installed.

    In the Superb, that is "Installed"

    And then... In the Arteon:
    05-Acc/Start Auth.
    10-Adapations
    ENG126956-ENG154581-Byte9_VIP-Coding_kick and_close_function
    Value = Not Active


    But in the Superb that value is Active.


    I don't know if I'm interpreting this correctly, but surely that doesn't mean I need a special module/bit of hardware in my car to have the kick to close function? Even though I can kick to open, and I can close it any other way except by kicking (and the door button).
