Is your DSG or manual?

Use the back of your hand to lock the car.

And get someone with OBDeleven/VCDS and turn that soundaktor off to hear the real sound of your car.

Glad you are loving it.

It is a cracking car... so good that after having one as a company car, I bought my own. So two GTD's in a row for me.

With the sport and sound pack you have two sound parts, a structure part which is called the Soundaktor and that is the horrid thing that makes the vibration behind the dashboard and the other it the part in the exhaust that makes the lovely growling noise outside. If you turn the first one off you can hear the second one properly. It can only be turned off but either physically disconnecting it or electronically with OBDeleven or VCDS.

Personally I think the £50 odd quid that the OBDeleven pro cost is well worth it for things it can do from coding the lights to little cosmetic things like this

It's to warm you not to deadlock the car when you lock it if there are occupants still in the car, as they won't be able to open the doors to get out when it's deadlocked.
