Default I just did the VAG-COM tweaks, windows up/dn with remote...etc (more)

It's awesome, the VAG-COM tool that is.
I can now raise and lower my windows with my remote (by holding down unlock to lower and lock to raise). I also turned off selective unlocking so all my doors unlock at one push of the button AND I turned on the Auto-Lock at Speed feature (about 15mph), this feature also unlocks all doors when the key is removed from the ignition.

I also used it to Change the lighting scheme so that I can have my Fogs on without my headlights..

I highly recommend that you all check out this awesome tool at www.ross-tech.com and the tech assist board at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/VAG-COM .
Big shout-out to UWE at Ross-Tech for his assistance in walking me through this procedure.

Is it possible to start the stereo with the remote?

Do you know if this will void any warrantee?
How easy was it to install? Is there free software
that will do the same? Any sites on home made
interface cables and whatnot?

Default How do you turn on the fogs without the headlights?

Isn't the light switch mechanically designed so that you need to physically turn the **** on to pull it out for the fogs?

If you turn it one position (running lights on), it will pull out to turn on the fogs. Right Greg?

Correct. But with the stock coding, doing that has no effect,

Default No, it won't void your warrantee..

If you're really paranoid, put back the stock settings before you take it to the dealer.

Default Thanks Uwe. Are you able to change any radio functions (sound/options) with the VAG-COM?

I'm about to buy one, but I need a push over the edge. What's the coolest feature about the tool?

Thanks
