    You'll probably find you can code it to come on by default with VAGCOM. You can on the Passats, and that's the same coding system as the Golf, which I think the Tiggy shares too?

    I have VAGCOM if anyone in Brisbane wants it coded. You'll need to find out what to code... are there instructions on Ross Tech's site about what to change?

    anyone experiencing the same issue?
    I had that soft high pitch sound when I turn on Auto Hold as well, but I have to turn the volume right down to hear it.

    As I was having some issues with my gearbox, I just brought my car back to the dealer for them to have a look. While I was there, I got the mechanic (probably still an apprentice) to listen to it and he was saying its comes from electronics that was being activated. He said he has never heard it in a Tiguan before but its a common problem in the Polos.

    I was thinking does Polo have Auto Hold? They have Hill-Start Assist which probably has the same working mechanism???

    Is a shame there is no default ON
    I thought there was a menu option in the MFD for always on? I will have to check and see what it does...

    Auto-hold is addictive. I'm used to it, and notice if I forget that it is a nuisance idling forward at a red light (auto). it is possible for it not to grab sometimes, if you don't depress the brake pedal properly.

    Our vehicle is only twp weeks old and auto hold is permanently set. It must have been enabled by the dealer.

    See the post above yours.
    You can disable it again in MFD.
