Default Had control module reprogrammed...including window up/down with remote

Had my control module reprogrammed with the window up/down and sunroof close with remote yesterday. Dealer initially said they could do the one touch unlocking of all doors, but not the window up/down (liability concerns). However, they called later in the day and asked for the correct code as "Audi doesn't publish" them. So, I gave them the code (16200 for Concert/Symphony radios, see the 'Electronics' FAQ) for one touch and window up/down. They were none the wiser.

So, rather than ask for the window up/down programming option, you may just want to ask them to enter the appropriate code. Just tell them that it *only* changes the door locks or lights flashing or whatever.

Default Show them a copy of the Audi TSB (link enclosed)

specifically, TSB 01-98-07
<a href="http://tech.vw.com/audipdf/a01-98-07.pdf">Here is a direct link to the TSB</a>

Print it out and show them the last page, specifically the last paragraph.

Also, pick the code from the FAQ <a href="https://www.audiworld.com/faq/faq_elec/a4program.shtml">entry for all the codes.</a>

Hope these links work. (First time trying HTML in a message).

I asked them to program my remotes, the service advisor looked at my printouts, especially the FAQ, and in the service request specifically indicated that I wanted (16236) and wrote down all the options for that code.

Have fun,

Default I had mine done today along with...

installation of Audi factory mudguards. They look pretty good IMHO. I elected to have the dealer do it that way it was their *** if they messed up. They also reprogrammed my remote. I just wanted the saftey locking and auto unlock features along with window control. Works pretty darn good. I got the mud guards at cost, so that made up for the 1 hr labor charge. Plus, they threw in a free car wash and topped off my washer fluid.

Default I gave my dealer the TSB and FAQ. They kept them both to offer this to other owners...no arguments.

Default And.......

...that was the second time they did it. Didn't get it quite right at delivery on 6/25/99, so they cheerfully(kind've appreciated the experiment!) did it again, and seemed quite happy to have the updated faq I provided them so as to be able to do for their other customers. I had honk removed, no auto door lock, and one touch for up/down.
