Auto door locking on BlueGt?
Auto door locking on BlueGt?
Hi everyone. I've just bought a BlueGT (2015) which I'm really impressed with. However, I'd like to get the doors to lock when I drive away. Going through the screens on the onboard computer I find this isn't an option & my local VW dealer tells me this isn't available on the car???? Is there any way this can be retro fitted? ![Confused :?](./images/smilies/icon_confused.gif)

Re: Auto door locking on BlueGt?
Yes I've done that on wife's August 2015 Polo 1.2TSI SEL using VCDS. It is not a simple one click change, a few modules need to get their coding changed including the MMI so that the option appears on the menu listing.
Carista using the Beta S/W might be able to do it as a single press!
Edit:- maybe search on this forum to see what has been written already as I'm sure that someone reported being able to enable this function, and I added the exact procedure - maybe?
Another Edit:- this function seems to be a regional thing, some want it some don't seem to want it, ie VW UK have not included it in their lists of "must haves". As to why VW dealers don't have the wit to ask for or have instructions on how to do this - I can't say.

Re: Auto door locking on BlueGt?
Best plan would be to use the search function with "auto locking" - I'll check that out tomorrow as I'm sure that I detailed all the changes that were needed and the order to do them in, which is roughly the same as some one posted some time ago, but maybe worded differently.gregmkv wrote: What do I need to change in VCDS?

You need to be a bit courageous in using VCDS to do this and careful, though VCDS will guide you a bit.
Edit:- yes it is all there, make the changes to BCM first, then enable that option in the MMI .

Mine, same year, UK model has auto locked from new, as has every car I've owned over the last twenty or so years. I thought they all did, silly me.

Yes, exactly, why did VW, and SEAT stop doing this for a short time or to some cars?Ricmondo wrote:Mine, same year, UK model has auto locked from new, as has every car I've owned over the last twenty or so years. I thought they all did, silly me.

The U.K. Models have locks programmed to remain or Brexit I suppose.

The options for programming it directly are:
Module:- 09 Cent Elect -
(3)-Access control-automatisches Verriegeln bei Geschwindigkeit - select this
(4)-Access control-automatisches Entriegeln - select this
and for enabling the menu:
Module:- 5F Information Elect
(18)-Access control-Menuesteuerung ZV Autolock-Unlock – set to adjustable ( this option will now appear in MMI menu with the ability to select “auto lock about 15KPH” and select “auto unlock ignition off or driver’s door open”

Re: Auto door locking on BlueGt?
Thanks for all the info guys! I'm going to print off the details and give them to the dealership. It's frustrating that they don't seem to have the knowledge/ability to find this out, but this forum has been a great help ![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)

Re: Auto door locking on BlueGt?
I've done this in my 6c GTI and it works a treat.
Thanks guys!
Thanks guys!

Thanks to the people with the knowledge and willingness to share it, I've now programmed auto locking and unlocking and showing it in the car menu. I'm very grateful.
