I certainly do, I lock my car about a hundred times while washing it.

Re: Advanced Key
In your instance it would make sense to leave your keys inside the house whilst you are washing it. No you don’t need to tell me I already know! I could be a brain surgeon with how intelligent I am.

Re: Advanced Key
Talking of keys purely by accident found out that the key will slide between the bits that hold your cups in the cup holders like they where made to hold the key, this must be a coincidence and not a designed feature.
Re: Advanced Key
I do this too... Something satisfying about it sitting in there....
Saw Schmee150 doing it in his 'review' of the RS4.

So no need for faraday pouch, steering lock etc.

Happy with start with key in the car somewhere, but unlocking when key is near the car is painful. You can never be sure the car is locked. Or it unlocks as you walk away etc. Just want to turn it off for a simple life.
However on the picture above my MMI doesn’t have the last “Convenience” option on the list. Any help appreciated.

Re: Advanced Key
Not sure what you mean, it’s pretty much the same as Audis have been for the last ten years, lock by putting your hand on the outside of the handle and unlock by putting your hand on the inside of the handle. Haven’t had any issues with this so far.

".... You can never be sure the car is locked. ...." ;
if the mirrors have folded, isn't that a visual cue that car is locked? ....or am I mistaken that it's possible to lock car, have mirrors folded, yet car not be completely locked?

so I really wanted to avoid keyless entry but I was forced to spec it as it came with the B&O sound system.
I was pleased to find that I could disable it but the option "Open with convenience key" is the only method I know to disable the keyless entry. My car is a 2018, I think it was new in 2018. Is your RS6 an earlier year?
