Hi, folks. Haven't posted for a while. My problem is:
When I lock the doors (using either the front driver-side interior lock button or the key fob) the front doors lock and the alarm system engages, but the rear doors don't lock, so that if I forget (or the fob unlock button button doesn't work, which is a more-frequent-than-not occurrence now--also a problem, but not as bad), I can open the rear doors, even though the front doors are still locked, and the alarm system goes off, and since the key fob unlock button doesn't work more-often-than-not, I have to manually unlock the doors w/ the key to turn it off--more embarrassing than anything else, but I've gotten tired of it. Is this a bad relay somewhere; did I inadvertently improperly set something w/ my VAG-COM; anyone have experience w/ this and know how to fix it? Also just noticed that unlocking the driver's door manually w/ the key doesn't unlock the passenger door.
Thanks!
