    I've turned on the sunroof + windows close when rain is detected (apparently will also close after the car has been locked for 24 hours but I haven't tested that).

    Would like to change the lane change to 4 blinks, but apparently the instructions don't work for Mk6 Golfs.

    Would also like to change to all doors unlock on single key press, rather than just driver, haven't got around to doing that yet (or is it available in the MFD? - haven't read that part of the manual yet).

    Yeah that's an MFD thing. The Lane change works on my 2009 MY10 Mk6 Golf, I think it's the later models that can't do it (as of yet).

    That's in your MFD. Under convenience from memory.

    Well, it's easy to "test" it. Just do the change, leave the wipers in "auto" leave the windows and sunroof open, lock the car, then pour some water on the rain sensor on the windscreen (I think you need to wait for a certain amount of time before pouring the water on).
    But yeah - I'd still be nervous about leaving the car outdoors if it were going to rain...

    just thought about it, having this rain closing feature turned on, whether it could pose a risk of arm decapitation if you decided to just roll down the window while engine off, waiting for someone? or is it 'on' only when the car immobiliser is armed & locked?

    It's only on when the car is locked. If someone decides to reach into my car while I'm not around and it starts to rain I don't really care what happens to their arm (besides family I guess)

    I doubt that a window will cut an arm off.

    Automatic closing when rain detected works perfectly on my GTI. No need to wait 24 hours. Closes after pouring water on the rain sensor for ~5 seconds.

    Pouring water on the rain sensor is how I tested mine.

    The rain close feature will also close the windows and sunroof if the car has remained locked for 24 hours (or if rain is detected, whichever comes first).

    So if you've left your car in long stay parking while on holiday, it will secure itself if you've left a window or the sunroof a bit open.
