2018 Audi Q5 proximity key unlock, engine auto stop-start, and folding mirrors on lock not working

Question

I have recently intalled EVO-ALL AUD2 / AUDT2 and things work just fine. However, it seems like proximity or smart keyless entry / unlock does not work when remote started. I have to press unlock button to get in the car. Also, my mirrors do not fold when shut down remotely by RF remote. Only if I use the OEM fob to lock the car will the side mirrors fold.

Is this a programming issue or something mechanical? Any fixes? Thanks!

 

EDIT: Also, another thing I noticed is the "auto engine on/off" or "auto stop-start" (e.g., at traffic lights or when idling) does not work when remotely started. Is that common after installing fortin?

Answer 1

Pretty sure this is normal operation for the unit but if you provide me the s/n to the unit I will confirm you have set it up according to the isntallation method used.

Thanks, Derek! Where do I find the S/N?

Hi Derek,

 

is the S/N only found on the back of the physical device? Any other way to find the S/N besides taking the car a part again?
