The Audi A4 comes with several pre-programmed functions in the central locking control module that can be accessed by using the VAG 1551/1552/5051 tools (available to Audi dealers), or PC emulation programs such as the old VWTool, Baum's VDS-PRO, or Vag-Com from Ross-Tech. These tools can be used to check your car's diagnostic codes, but they also allow you to make certain modifications to the default programming. Listed below are several of the codes that will modify the central locking control module in the Audi A4 to access some of the hidden features available on these cars. Please note that Audi of America does not officially recognize that these codes exist and some dealers are unwilling to make modifications to the factory control module coding. You assume all responsiblity and liability associated with these modifications. To make modifications to the factory settings, numbers are added to and subtracted from the default setting code numbers. Below is a table that lists several of these functions and the programming required to access these functions. The value is the number added to or taken away from the default programming. Please note that these codes are for cars in the North American market. Function Add Window Up/Sunroof close, and Window Down with remote.* Add 1 touch unlock of all 4 doors, trunk Remove horn honk when arming Auto lock/unlock of doors (Doors lock at 15 mph and unlock when key is removed) Value
The coding depends on which radio is installed in your car from the factory. The table below shows the total coding value for certain functionality 'packages' that I have experimented with.
