How to Enable Trunk Close on Key Fob on Audi Q5 FY

The Audi Q5 FY is the most popular Audi SUV — and one of the most common requests is being able to close the power tailgate from the key fob. One activation makes it happen.

Activation Price: €65One-time • Permanent • VIN-verified

What Changes After Activation?

The Q5 FY's power tailgate gets used constantly — groceries, sports gear, kids' equipment. Being able to close it remotely is a genuine quality-of-life improvement.

After activation:

  • Key fob closing — Press once to close the tailgate from normal remote range. Walk to the driver's door while the tailgate closes behind you.
  • Interior button — One-touch close, works with and without ignition
  • Everyday convenience — On an SUV that gets loaded and unloaded multiple times a day, remote closing saves time on every single use

This is one of those activations where you wonder why it was not enabled from the factory.
