This seemed to fix the issue. The remote feature for opening/closing the windows has worked for me ever since I reset the windows.
Interesting. Since the OP's windows auto-closed with the door handle, I figured that reprogramming (resetting) the window positions would be moot, but maybe worth a try.

So I believe I've reset the windows (again) to no avail.
Still not working.
As there seems to be several methods online, it could be that I'm not doing it properly for the 2018 RS5.

Can someone post how they accomplished the window reset???

Read it again. You can't close the windows with the remote.

But @Zell says remote opening and closing the windows works on his car?

Also I see how that page in the owners manual can be confusing. The first para says all of the WINDOWS and roof can be opened/closed. But later under convenience closing feature explanation they make it sound like only the roof can be closed by the keyfob, and the windows (and roof) can be closed by the sensor.

I just checked on my car. The windows and roof can both be opened and closed,with the remote. Regarding the door sensor, holding my hand on the inside of the door latch only unlocks the car, whereas, holding my hand against the outside Sensor will close the roof and windows, although confusing it appears as though that is what the manual says.

Yes, as Richr confirmed as well, windows do both open and close via the remote - if that doesn't work for you, please read on...

Funny story (maybe more just annoying?) Being winter, I have not used the remote open / close feature for a couple months. I know that I have opened them quite a bit with the remote, but wanted to double check the close feature. I go out to my garage and the remote open and close function both do nothing. Holding the sensor on the door? Nothing. I put the car in ACC mode (press the start once without foot on brake). From the driver's door window controls, put all the windows fully down. I then held each of those buttons down again (individually) for a couple seconds each to teach the bottom position. Tried all three open / close methods again - none worked. I then raised all the windows fully up. Individually held each button up for a couple seconds (all from the driver's door). Tested again - all open / close functions worked as they should.

A low key fob battery will also keep this feature from working properly!
