Keep spoiler up always

I like having the spoiler up all the time and manually put it up. But when I go above 50 (which is often even in city) and then below 37, it goes back down. Is there a way to always have it deployed?

There doesn't seem to be a way, its programmed to switch to automatic as soon as you pass that magical 50mph

Unless some computer genius can figure how to hack the program. I'm sure there is some way to code it. I own a 2002 V6 Passat which is a family car based on the Audi. There was a way to change the code so that we would get the same "sport" mode available in the Audi.

YOu can go Euro and order this from outmotoring.com. http://www.outmotoring.com/jcw-r58-r...r-spoiler.html

Looks good, but I don't the details on what happens to the computer when you remove the original.
