Had a look and spoke to a mate who deals with VW's. He said it's the way it's been configured. Apparently it can be reconfigured

you can disconnect the arm linking the handle to the central locking meaning it would only open with the key - but why would you not want it to open with the fob?

I had issues with mine leaking and when I came to change it noticed the original key didnt fit the boot lock, so it was being run ONLY from the fob, bad news when the fob broke, and you have the dog cage bars fitted and on one of the seats that holds the dog cage the clip had snapped  :sick:

it was time for some careful cutting with the biggest cutters I had  :evil:

It's opening with the key only at the moment and not with the fob!

exactly so it must have the bar disconnected in the boot handle
