Got it in mine, came with the car, handy to have but don't think I've ever used it set to 2 different temperatures.
How hard can it be?

Me also, usually I'm set at 9c less than her!
Used to have Edition 30 - number 009 and a GT TDI 140.
Now have an S4 B8 Avant (stage 2)

Auto will put temp up or down to keep the cabin at whatever temp you have set the little screen to. If the passenger dial is turned (in the gti) it automatically changes to dual so you can have you own temperatures

Mines usually 22c the misses likes it around 18-20!
