  Probably prevents auto engagement of the parking lock which would result in damage when the car gets dragged along the chain drive in the car wash. At least that’s what that does in my car.

    …so carwash mode is just fancy neutral?

      Dunno, for my car it is a bit more. No automatic wipers, no automatic braking and it prevents the parking lock and the parking brake from engaging.

        While that explanation of yours is helpful and comprehensible, the whole thing seems stupid to me. But then again, my 1999 Golf has none of those features and I wouldn’t want them either.
