Default Key Slot & Oil Cooler

Evening all.

I took the rubber bottom out of the centre console cubbytoday and there’s a key slot there. Can anyone tell me what it’s for?

Second thing. Does the geartronic have its own oil cooler?

Last question for today. My car doesn’t have a wind deflector. Are they worthwhile?

Thank you.

Its to disengage the automatic shiftlock if you have a flat battery and need to move the car. You use the spare key in the key fob.
