So:

I went to see the VCDS-man today. It all seems to be as the advice on this thread has suggested: the absurd auto-unlock has been disabled - hurrah!

The one-touch window-closing on locking seems to be unavailable - boo! Health and safety gone mad, I guess. I never in 10 years cut anyone's limbs or head off using this excellent function.

 

Thanks for all the (pertinent) input. I should point out, though, that it is not by luck that I don't own an Audi RS7 - it is the result of an entirely deliberate choice on my part.

Sorry, I'm a bit late to the thread, but I'm pretty sure that if I've unlocked only the drivers door when I got in, that's the only door that the auto-unlock unlocks when I stop, which is almost what was asked for. It's a bit irritating when I want to get something out of the boot.

The selection for automatic locking on the 'car set-up' thing unfortunately also makes all the locks fly open when you take the ignition key out.

Why do I not want this to happen? Well, I suppose for the same reason I don't want all the lock to open when I press 'open' on the fob as I approach the car to get in: because I want to limit access to the vehicle by unauthorised and probably malevolent person/s unknown.

When I go to get in the car and press 'open' on the fob, I want the driver's door unlocked so that I can get in secure in the knowlege than no-one else can run up and hop in another door, or pinch anyhting from the boot - and this is what it does.

When I park, I like to get ready to leave by taking the keys from the ignition, and then I like to unlock and open the driver's door only by pulling the inside handle once I've had a look around, I don't at that point want the the boot and the other doors accessible by anyone else. This, unfortunatley, the 'automatic locking' option prevents.

This might smack of persecutory delusions - but there are bad folk about, and I live and work among such folk (amongst others, I hasten to add - the good with the bad).

 

On my cr if I only press the unlock once in the first place rather than twice then when I stop the car and open the door only my door is unlocked.

Yes my last car a mondeo, was a case of just pressing the button and walking away knowing it was closing the windows behind me. Much better!
