They coded Windows / Sunroof / Auto fold mirrors. Details of how it is done I'm not sure of however.

There are lots of coders in SoCal that can turn on the ability for you to close all windows and the sunroof by holding down the lock button on the key fob. I did it, and I wasn't sure I'd use it, but I do all the time.

i've only been able to close my moon/sun roof with the ignition in position 2.

i can adjust the seats and actuate the windows for about five minutes in any position even with the key removed if i do not exit the vehicle.

it sounds like yours is doing what it's supposed to do.

Can someone explain coding to me? It seems like it's some magic art but I am guessing in reality it involves hooking up a cable to our cars and typing in a few things? Does it involve equipment that's hard to get or expensive? Why does there seem to be so much mystery around it?

It's only a mystery because you're not doing your homework. It's well talked about on this board.
