I got my keys re-programmed today (paid for by the previous owner ;) ).
However, I notice the following difference.......
My old key - press the unlock button once = all doors unlock as normal.
The new key - Press the unlock button once = only drivers door unlocks. Press unlock button twice = all doors unlock.
Which of the above two is 'normal'??
I asked the dealer why they were different, and he said it was probably down to the second key being brand new?
I thought both keys should operate the same??
Im wondering whether they re-programmed the second key, and didnt do the first as well?? I needed both done!
-
its a setting in vagcom isnt it? mine used to be 2 click open but changed it to 1 click as the 2 click is just plain annoying.
the 2 click method is 'normal' :smiley:

The keys can be programmed individually, even down to remembering what the default air-con temp is set to.
-
I think the doors being unlocked can be set using the MFD

Yep, the certainly can via highline anyways.

Sounds like the first key isn't programmed right!
On both my keys:1 click opens just the driver doors (this is a security measure so no one jumps in the passenger seat once your in).
2 clicks opens all doors!
This is like this on all my familys cars!
-
I rang the dealers, since one key opens all doors with a single click, while the other key opens all doors on 2 clicks. They said they knew it was a setting change, but usually you have one or the other - they had never come across a car where 1 key did one thing and the second key did another thing........
Or is it something I can do in the Highline display myself??
-
Ok, just checked on my Highline. The single door unlocking is switched OFF.
Yet it still works with one key and not the other!
lol
Will let the dealer have a look tomorrow....

Just come back from the dealers, who have sorted the problem by resetting one of the keys and re-programming again.
They said it was something I couldnt have done myself, so I didnt feel like a right plank ;)

Same here on my keys too.

Apparently you can have them set either way - I preferred to have mine unlock all doors on a single press, just what Im used to I guess ;)
