I think there is a faulty Convenience module on some Audi's, this will need
taking to your dealer, unless you accidentally used to auto open in your
house (sitting on the key) which I doubt very much.

To Auto open your windows, just hold the unlock button on your keyfob and
all the windows go down.

Interestingly, on my Allroad, one must insert the key in the door, manually
unlock it, and hold the key in the unlock position for a few seconds for all
the windows to roll down. Pressing and holding the unlock button on the
keyfob will not auto open the windows. For which country does this keyfob
function work?

I'd imagine any country that has a VAG tool or emulator to enable all of the
"neato" optional features that aren't set by default...

It *should* work everywhere, but may have been disabled. Note that you
need to hold down the button for *at least* 5 seconds before it will
operate.

If you want the windows open by one inch, then you can release the
button when the windows have opened to that position!

Nope. I tried it several times. Also, there is nothing in the manual about
the keyfob function. They call it "convenience open/close" depending on to
which side you turn and hold the key in the lock. I assume its the same in
the USA as the manual is the same for both Canada and USA. Any Americans
have any input on this keyfob function?

I use it all summer long, it lets the blast of furnace heat out of the car
before I get in...

Check out Module 46:
http://www.ross-tech.com/vag-com/cars/audiB6.html

It all depends on how the software is set up. You can plug the car into the
software and change any of these settings!! Can be done via a laptop and
software purchased from some clever guys.
