Auto-lock is an anti-carjacking measure, but can be annoying. You can turn it off with VCDS if you want to.
I find you have to hold the button on "unlock" for a bit, not just press it and release. Give it a try?

Got the anti-hijack disabled, and also now 1 press of the key to unlock all doors.
Thanks everyone.

also got brake lights that now flash under heavy braking. And I thought this feature was only on very new hi end cars?
Cool for a 2005 car. By why is it not enabled from the factory?
