And you can close the trunk using the trunk release lever in the driver's door.

Now there's one I've never tried. Just hit it for a second time?

I do have my key programmed to both open and close the trunk, one of the most useful VAG COM mods for my needs.

Pull and hold the switch as I recall.

I didn't know about the VAGCOM remote mod. Found the thread! I'll have to try.

Yes, just pull and hold the switch in the driver's door. The lid will start closing and emit a beeping signal while it moves.
