disable 2nd press central locking keyfob function

Hi, sorry if this has been answered before but have read 90 thread pages now & have completed a search & can't find anything. I want to disable the 2nd press on the key fob, I just want all the doors to unlock when I press the button first time round, is this something I can do myself? in my other car Jeep Grand Cherokee I can simply disable this in the cars set up menu! Please tell me I can do this in the Volkswagen it drives me insane, I never know if its open or not & invariably end up pressing the button several times!! Mant thanks in advance Mark

You need VAG COM software and lead to do this. Then you get the choices...

Selective Unlocking:

[Select]
[46 - Cent. Conv.]
[Recode - 07]
Write down the existing coding for future reference.
Enter 5-digit code from below
[Do It!]

Look at the existing Soft. Coding. If you have selective unlocking (press the unlock button on the remote once to open the driver's door, twice to open all the doors) the last digit of your coding should be an odd number. To make all doors unlock, add 1 to the coding.

Lock/Unlock Horn/Flash:

[Select]
[46 - Cent. Conv.]
[Adaptation - 10]
Channel (03..08)
Adaptation Value (1 = on, 0 = off)
[Save]

Channel 03 Auto Lock
Channel 04 Auto Unlock
Channel 05 Unlock, horn sounds
Channel 06 Lock, horn sounds
Channel 07 Unlock, turn signals flash
Channel 08 Unlock, turn signals flash

That sounds handy, is there a way to get the windows to close when you lock the doors with the fob?

Yes, you can buy an alientech http://www.alientech.net/ gadget to change some bits in the firmware. There was also software to do it, I forget the name, but you needed an old DOS laptop and floppy etc... not really practical in 2009.

However just looked on ebay for the VAG com lead £13 is this what I require & is it as simple as it sounds? Mark
