Noticed someting interesting there,, my passenger window does not work on one touch facility, seems it has to be set with the key,, I know quite a few have had this problem with the passenger window,, my drivers one is fine.

Thanks for that

Didn't realise the doors could automatically lock might have to investigate that one....

footwell flap - eh?

I was pressed for time when I chucked those scans on the screen.

Basically there are options by car and then for each individual key. The exact choices are dependant upon your individual car and accesories fitted. Looking at my list for instance you can see that key 1 does not lock the doors when driving off but key 2 does (as my wife likes that function)

Mecca, flap setting - who the hell knows what some things do. There is for instance an option that was set when I got the car that bleeped constantly while reverse was engaged. How annoying could that get....

I suggest you go to the dealer and they can print out exactly what you have already got and the options open to you. From there you work down a tick list of what you want.

Mine auto locks the doors when moving off - don't they all?

I would think so as there are cell phones today that have Mecca direction Indicators and alarms to alert you to prayer times...

No it's a selectable setting for each individual key.

You can also have it open just the drivers door on one key blip and passenger on the second, or both together.

Actually Zeds are a bit weak in key controls compared with the X5 (and probably other top end models). You can open/close sunroofs, windows, set the radio, aircon, mirrors, etc. etc.

Correct, found this on a search...

Anyone have an upto date list of options available?
Is there any other way I can change the options myself? or could an independant BMW garage do it?

On my wifes BMW 1 series you can change options like unlocking doors on turn off, autolocking of doors.

[gannet]

any independant with the kit can do it

no way I know of to do it yourself without the relevant kit etc.

Um, so nothing to do with Bingo, as I thought?
