    Does "Convenience Closing" close the "glass roof"?

    Picked up the new 162TSI today. Yay!

    On a bit of a steep learning curve.

    Owner's manual suggests that pressing and holding the lock on the keyfob should close all windows AND the "glass roof" (sunroof). Dealer told me the same.

    I can't get it to work for love nor money. Windows close, sunroof resolutely stays open and mocks me.

    I've run out of clues from the clue store.

    Any guidance would be appreciated.

    Talk to the dealer, it's probably an option that just needs to be activated via VCDS.

    Sure - does this mean yours works?

    Seems there are a LOT of things in the manual that don't apply here

    (Like DAB+ ... Why no DAB+????)

    I haven't got mine yet! But I'm sure that if it's not working for you now then they'll be able to sort it out. No idea why we don't be DAB+, it's on the discover unit in the UK, so don't know why we miss out.

    Oops - didn't read your signature.
    Sorry about that.

    I'll chat to the dealer tomorrow about that - maybe hassle him about DAB+ too. Perhaps it's just a software setting

    Dab+ is a hardware problem Probably the same as the RNS510. Only the later ones with a different motherboard had it.

    Isnt the Euro DAB different to AUS which is one of the few countries to have DAB+

    I have only been able to get the windows to open and close with the key, nothing I have done has managed to get the sunroof to open or close as per the manual.

    I also find it quite annoying that you have to keep the button depressed in order to open or shut the windows otherwise they stop at the point where you let go of the button.

    I have also had issues with locking the car by pressing the door handle. I can do it no issues to open the car but it works maybe once out of every ten attempts when locking it. Very annoying as the last thing I want to do is to you use the key and my 6 year old Kia managed to get this working...

    I would probably be ok with the press to unlock not working because then I can use the key to unlock and open the windows early and then press to lock and walk away after shutting everything while still in the car but its the worst of both worlds.

    That would pi** me off to. I just use my thumb on the little indentation on the handle to lock and then grab the whole handle to unlock.... has worked faultlessly every time.... sorry for your angst!!

    on our MKVI GTI all the windows and sunroof opened (slide for sunroof) when you held the unlock button and all closed when you held the lock button down... I think it was a setting in the MFD menus that had to be ticked in order to get the sunroof to work.

    I actually like that feature (on my Jetta). It means I can lower and raise the windows so that there is an air gap when I'm locking the car. I think that's why its configured that way...
