Coding the central locking - B4 Cabriolet

[DGSdale]

Audi 80 B4 Cabriolet 2.6 yr.2000 final Edition.


Does anybody know if it is possible to recode the central locking so that:

1. One press on the key fob unlocks the drivers door only & flashes the indicators

2. A second press on the key fob unlocks the rest of the car.

3. The car does NOT auto lock everything when you exceed 5mph (or whatever it is) just after pulling away

4. One press on the key fob locks everything, flashes the indicators and gives a 'chirp' of the alarm horn.

I've done it on my first C5 A6 and on my current one. It's a case of adding or subtracting numeric values from the soft coding of the central locking module via VCDS to achieve what ever permutation you want
At the moment I don't have a 2x2 adaptor for my VCDS but should have one next week but I'm wondering if it's possible on the Cabrio, given that the car dates back to 1992(?) albeit a yr. 2000 model.

I don't think it's possible on the earlier cars have a look at Ross Tech website that will tell you.

Thanks for your reply - that would certainly be helpful. Unfortunately, I can't even find a mention of anything earlier than the A4

Well, I've managed to recode it in the normal way to achieve most of what I wanted, just can't separate the drivers door from the passenger door and boot. I should have realised that was never going to happen with vacuum central locking when it's all on the same 'circuit'.
