« on: 09 June 2012, 23:21 »

The keyless entry & start is the one thing I miss from my previous ride, I still to this day get in the GTD and just put the keys down, forgetting that it's keys operated :laugh: I'm sure in time it will pass... :grin:

But it is something that I really miss, and something that shud be std on a so called premium car...or at least have the option.

+1 Its just so much cooler, and the push start engine button is awesome, love every moment of it when I start my Type-S right now..
Think the Hatch opening is pretty awesome as well but guess that's not to everyone's liking..

You do the boot with skoda struts or something - check the mk5 section, problem is they don't work so well in the cold and if your in a car park / low garage you can do some damage.....

I did the hatch thing on mine. Took about 2 mins. If it is cold it doesnt work. My hatch full up sits lower up than if I didnt switch the brackets.

Ah yes ecstuning that's the one, was trying to remember the companies name when I first read the OP as I've seen it on there website before, I was tempted but the fact that it's useless if it's cold put me off....

The keyless entry for the Golf (KESSY) is also available in mainland Europe but not the UK for some reason although mentions it on the UK site.

It is a £435 option on the passat.

I wonder if it effects insurance ratings and doesn't meet UK regs?  :shocked:
