Hello and thank you for contacting YourMechanic. You can determine which doors are unlocked through the central locking system in the MMI. When operating the MMI, select the ’Car’ function button then select ’Systems’ the select ’Central Locking’. You can then determine which doors should be unlocked when you unlock the vehicle with the remote control. If you need further assistance with setting up the car central locking system, then seek out a professional, such as one from Your Mechanic, to help you with your vehicle.
