What changes

Comfort system 46, long coding, byte 9, bit 7 = 1 (central_locking_system_lock_unlock_at_engine_running). The key fob buttons lock and unlock the car even while the engine is running.

Details

Handy for leaving the car locked while it warms up. On the Touareg CR, unit 46 answers on 29-bit CAN. The map is confirmed by one source for the Touareg CR — check the result after writing. One bit changes, the other bytes are kept. To turn it off, set the same bit to 0.
