Hello 

 

Is this an easy feature to enable on vcds? 

 

Should I look to find a member to do this for me and obviously pay them. Or best to download the software and licence and do this myself? 

 

I've used Ross tech some years ago for key re programming 

Not 100% sure what you want to do here - autolock (all doors) is available in the MENU-CAR-SETTINGS option........?

Sorry, yes, looking to enable the feature that allows you to centrally lock your doors from the remote fob, whilst the engine is running and the key is not present. 

 

My BMW could do this by locking the key whilst holding the key at the bottom of the windscreen on the outside tricking the car into thinking it was inside. I can't find any area of the car around the bulkhead this works on the Karoq and read that it required programming on VCDS?

Hello, welcome to the forum.

You haven't posted your location country - but don't do this if you are in UK.

It is indeed possible to do it with VCDS. I've done it on mine (in the UK, but rarely use it, only when it's really cold and need a few mins to warm up).

You can do it via VCDS or even with OBDEleven, or Carista.

On VCDS, it's just a Bit you need to enable (ticking a box), then submitting the coding. On Carista is a button to press. That's about it. Works straight away, no need to re-connect the battery or restart the engine.

If you have VCDS, you can do it with that, otherwise it's cheaper to get a Carista adapter and do it via the app.
