Default Auto windows with the remote?

I thought I remember reading somewhere on here that the functionality is there it just needs to be programmed by the dealer, is that correct? When you hold down unlock on the remote the windows roll down and then when you hold lock the windows roll back up ...

Thanks!

Dealer told me that they don't have a roll up function when holding the lock bottom. Is there another way to activate this using the keyfob?

There is no way to roll up with the key fob. The car can be programmed to roll up with key inserted into driver door key hole holding it in the lock position

Key fob can only be programmed to roll down windows

does anyone know what the programing procedure is? Is this something the dealer needs to plug into the car for or can we do it ourselves

I just ordered a Carista Bluetooth OBD2 adapter from Amazon: Link: http://amzn.com/B00YVHGTBM


You'll also need their app for Android or iPhone - it's free to look at the settings and ODB stuff, but you'll have to purchase the Pro version of the app for $20 to be able to change the car's settings. It should arrive today - I'll report back after I've had a chance to use it.

The Carista was delivered and I got a chance to use it. As expected, I had to purchase the Pro upgrade for the app for $19.99, but it worked like a charm.

How did you activated it? Did you take it to the dealer and had them do it for you? Or did you do it on your own with the Techstream or the app mentioned above?

Could be that it's a country specific thing. That'd be cool to have that kind of option here in the states.

I asked the dealer to do it for me. But I didnt tell them I want to remotely close the windows and sunroof as well. I too thought that we could only roll down the windows. It is such a good feature to have in a country where it gets too hot. I can open the windows and vent out the heat from my office itself. I just wish the car came with remote engine and a/c start as well.
