Rear seat lock button - my son locked himself in the car
using the rear seat locking button while I was fueling the car (he's 3). Of course, I had left the keys in the ignition not remembering that the damn button was back there and within his reach. After about 5 minutes of cajoling, I finally got him to wriggle out of the car seat and open the door. Sheeesh.
Of course, soon enough he'll probably be driving away with the car.

Hint: If you don't leave the keys in it, he can't drive away with the car.
That should help with the lock out incidents too.
Honestly, I don't have children, but when there is a pet or child in the car, and I need to get out for ANY reason, I roll a window down and take the keys with me. That almost eliminates the possibility of a bad situation. Consider doing the same from now on.

Before you child welfare advocates report me to Child Services....
I know this child's capabilities very well (still learning the A4's capabilities, however), and he is unable to get out of his carseat without significant effort (as was again confirmed as I tried to coax him out). When I gas up, I always pay at the pump, and the child is never out of my sight. So, if the kid has a mind to get out of the seat, I'm on him immediately.
The X factor was the lock button on the middle console.
