Default Vag-Com mods for Q7's with 3G MMI?

Hi all, was playing around with our 2010 Q7 this morning and added a few features...Needle Sweep, Seatbelt chime inactive, Convenience windows up/down with remote. Was wondering if anyone has done a comprehensive list of everything that can be done.

Does anyone have a list of everything that can be done? Would love to add VIM, Emergency Brake Flasher, Battery Status and anything else

For your 2010, you say you can use your key to open AND close the windows? On my 2014, it only gives me the option to open but NOT close. Also, it seems that in 2014 they went back to the +128 instead of the long code helper.

If the key convenience feature has been enabled with VCDS, have you gone to the new option in the MMI? It needs to be set in order to have the fob operate the windows both up and down. There's also an option to close the sunroof.

Actually...they don't close, only open. The +128 says it adds convenience with key fob but doesn't fully work. Anyone else have this issue and find a solution? I did go into the MMI to and make sure they were in the on and it only says "convenience open" too.

I checked and it does work with the key in the door lock though.

Is there a mod to get rid of the "Passenger Airbag Off" warning light? I can understand that it might want to be on when the car first fires up, or if an underweight passenger is seated, but it's a little ridiculous to be driving solo in the car for a few hours with the annoying yellow glow uselessly reminding you that the airbag for the un-occupied seat is indeed still off.

Could be the A6 C7 coding is different. I just tried it to be sure and with the sunroof setting on in the the convenience menu, it closes and (tilt only) opens with my fob.
