I would probably say it is the door lock module located on the inside of the door.

I know it’s a pain in backside and scared the bejesus out of you, but I’d rather have it then not. Also wonder if it would be an insurance claim issue if it was found to be turned off post accident?

If it’s just for use on your own driveway then turn it on and off as needed.

Have a Cupra Terramar which looks like the same screen to the Golfs, but with a Cupra O/S, and there is a pull down from top of the screen where you have lane assist, speed warning and attention tracker (camera follows your eyes) which you have option to cancel as a pre-flight activity.

Because its a pull down this allows for there to be a row of permanent shortcuts also. Think Cupra have done really good job on the O/S as no need to go into any menus for anything its all on front screen and the pull down option is really good addition to expand the shortcuts options.

Not ever sat in a MK8.5 Golf, so does that not have the pull down option also?

Another nice touch is that the buttons for seat heating and rear window heating etc are made to look like buttons, so you pick them out more readily.

Forgot to say in my previous post above, this can be disabled which I did in my Clubsport after the brakes slammed on and seatbelts tensioned as I was reversing very gingerly into a supermarket parking bay causing back and neck pain. The trigger for this was a couple of people wandering between parked cars a significant distance away in another row of cars and the row I was parking in was almost empty of cars (and pedestrians).
I can’t remember the exact settings on the mk8 but I was just reminded of it reversing my car into the garage amongst all the junk with parking sensors screaming away!

Anyway, it’s labelled as Manoeuvre Braking:

 

that's nice to hear, i remember playing with this in my mk7, but i don't think i have changed the setting in my current car.  I'll give it a go, i assume disabling this means i could just exit my driveway and even if i direct my car towards my wall intentionally just for the fun of it, it won't slam the brakes, that right?

I have ordered one yesterday. The salesman called me today saying that the predicted production week is 13 or 14.
