WOW! Why isn't THAT enabled by default. *sigh*

It's in the freakin software already! And the hardware can do it! TURN IT THE FRIG ON VW!

I already know I won't be able to afford it.

Good rant, I'll give you nine out of ten for it. Strangely enough it opens and closes via the button in my Tiguan so why not every car.

So my friends Kodiaq - that opens and closes using the internal button.
Just checked my wife's Superb Wagon, and that only opens with the internal button - you have to get out and go to the back of car and press the button there to close it. But you can close it automatically from the keyfob.

My car is the exact same as the Superb - internal button opens only, but you can close it with the fob or by using the button at the back.

I've got a Hex Net on order from Ross Tech - it should arrive soon. I'm going to see if I can figure out how to enable it. I know the car can do it - it just needs to know it can.

All track Wolfsburg opens and closes from the switch inside. Just sounds like a bunch of inconsistent coding across different development teams to me.

My biggest grip with VW!

All the hardware is the same. All the software is the same. All the configs are COMPLETELY DIFFERENT!!!
