Back in December my girlfriend's car battery died so I, being the gentleman that I am, offered to jump her car for her and suggested that she go inside to keep warm since it was about -4 degrees. I proceed to pop the hood, put the key in the ignition so I don't have to take off my gloves to get it out of my pocket, and close the door so I can get around to the hood. I fiddle with the cables a little and wait till I think it's ready to go. Then I walk back to open the driver door and just as I reach for the handle the car locks itself! I still can't imagine why Volkswagen would think that you would want the car to lock itself if you left your key in the ignition and closed the door.
