spijun if I'm reading your post correctly, if you buy and install the Kufatec module and do the coding the hatch will open and close by either the remote or inside door button?
If yes, have you done this on your Q5? I have the VCDS, but need a bit more info on where/how the module installs.
Thanks

I recall seeing a video the Kufatec module working as described on a Q5, but I can't find it. Here's a youtube for the A6 Avant. I'm sure the install and operation is the same/similar.

I do not have installed the module
Perhaps it would be best to contact the company Kufatec

I know when you buy their product they send you a link to download instructions on how to install

Plus, I found out how they're doing it so I will give it a shot.

Thanks for the responses. VERY HELPFUL.

I can confirm that it works with an A7. I performed the update for an owner at a previous Meetup I had in the LA Area.

If anyone with a Q5 has Electric Tailgate and wants to try it out, I'm game. I have regular meetups in the LA area, and occasionally in the Orange County,CA and San Fransisco, CA.

I am also having a meetup in Las Vegas, Nevada this weekend if anyone is interested. Details in my signature.

Are you saying it works without the Kufatec module? I have the electric tailgate and a VAG COM cable. What code did you change?

I'm assuming the code above is only for the windows/moonroof; if so, I've already done it.

I have no issues if the module is really needed; just think it's dumb that you press the remote's lock or unlock button twice instead of the hatch button.

I did the mod with an A7 that already has electronic trunk closing.

I was saying that I would be willing to give it a try for the Q5 and this 3rd party hardware.

I will dig up the code I used and post it here.

This was posted on the A7 forum a while ago:

To make the Advanced Key Trunk Close function work, follow Stevial's instruction in the video.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KIi0A...ature=youtu.be

In addition:
Select "(4)-Activation using rear lid opening function in remote key-Tap function for closing".
Store value will be "not active"
Select "active" in the New value drop down
Go Back, Close, Go Back, Exit.
Enjoy closing the trunk with your Advanced Key.

Must try this but it is rather hard to follow the video, would be great if someone can list the coding.
