Since there's no mechanical key, when getting the car washed, if I walk away, the staff always calls me to unlock the door. Is there a way to solve this? Can I set the car system to not lock automatically?

It seems like your 2011 Phaeton is experiencing some issues with the remote unlocking and the keyless start system. Sometimes you have to use the mechanical key to lock and unlock the car, and the keyless start doesn't work. Occasionally, after using the mechanical key to start and then turning off the engine, the remote unlocking and keyless start work fine again. What could be the problem?
For a 2011 Volkswagen Phaeton with 130,000 kilometers, experiencing issues with the key frequently failing to unlock the doors or the car not detecting the key inside, along with a loud engine noise, here's what you can do: 1. **Key Issues:** - **Battery Check:** Start by checking and replacing the battery in your key fob, as a weak battery can cause these problems. - **Signal Interference:** Ensure there is no electronic interference around you when using the key. Sometimes other devices can disrupt the signal. - **Reprogramming:** If the issue persists, consider having the key reprogrammed by a professional. 2. **Engine Noise:** - **Oil Level and Quality:** Check the engine oil level and quality. Low or dirty oil can increase engine noise. - **Regular Maintenance:** Ensure regular maintenance is performed, including oil changes and tune-ups, to keep the engine running smoothly. - **Inspect Components:** Have a mechanic inspect the engine components like the timing belt, exhaust system, and other parts that might contribute to the noise. Regular maintenance and addressing minor issues promptly can help maintain the car's performance and longevity.
Taycan owners, I have a question about a feature. As you might know, in the Taycan's triple display, the middle one shows the speed by default, and when the power meter is checked, it shows acceleration and energy recovery levels—blue for acceleration and green for recovery. In my car, with the default set to normal mode, when I press the accelerator, the blue bar shows up normally. However, when I press the brake, the green bar doesn't show at all, although the car brakes fine. Does this mean my braking relies solely on mechanical brakes without energy recovery? Is there a way to set it so the green bar shows normally when braking? I'm sincerely asking for advice, thanks everyone!
4I've always wanted to switch to the 86 since it’s my third car after getting my license, but after trying it, I have some regrets. The interior, sound insulation, and loudspeakers of my previous German cars make me hesitate about the 86. Since I drive half on the highway and half in the city, I’d like to know everyone's honest daily driving experience. Let's set aside its excellent handling and looks, and just talk about daily driving comfort.

6It seems that the 2011 Nissan Sunny doesn't have an engine immobilizer. I can just use a mechanical key to unlock the door and drive away.
7Has anyone replaced the key battery before? After I replaced the car key battery myself, I can remotely lock and unlock the doors without any issues, but the car won't start when I insert the key. The anti-theft system isn't connecting. Does anyone know how to solve this?
82022 HONGQI HS7 QiChang with five seats, driven 8000 miles. After rain, the keyless entry system failed. The key can only lock and unlock the doors; inside the car, the key is not recognized (both keys have this issue), and the car won't start (even emergency start doesn't work). HONGQI Smart Connection can start the vehicle, but it can't be driven away. The 4S shop inspection indicated a key matching fault, and after re-matching, it worked fine. However, the issue reoccurred 5 days later. What could be the problem? Have any fellow car enthusiasts experienced this? How do you deal with it?
