My car won't let me enable that in the MMI...

Okay, I will try it next time I am down in the parking garage... but... here's the thing: it actually shows up in the MMI, saying it's off and with a cryptic error message saying it can't be enabled. Does yours do that too?

I checked the manual and it does not indicate that a specific trim line is required for this function to work.

Key FOB Range Problem

I have 2017 Q7 but should be same for A4

This is the VCDS coding for Removing Key FOB Range Limitation.

Address 46: Central Conv.

Byte 28

UnCheck Bit 1 Range Limitation Lock
UnCheck Bit 2 Range Limitation Rear?
UnCheck Bit 3 Range Limitation Opening
UnCheck Bit 4 Range Limitation Panic

I just UnChecked all 4, but never did testing to see if actual range is gained. If someone can do a unlock / lock test to see what distance it stops working then do this coding and see if range is gained that would nice to confirm.
