Trunk won’t close with fob inside

boss2k · 10-06-2017, 10:48 PM

Yesterday while leaving work i forgot to take the keys out of the laptop bag and put the bag in trunk and closed it and it opened back beeping , I thought there were some issue and closed trunk for couple of times and trunk kept popping up and then realized my keys were in the laptop bag.

That saved me couple of hrs by not calling road side assistance and locking myself out of car issue

Great feature

Funny, my wife and I drove to work together yesterday. She made us take her Merc as she dislikes the ride in the M4. At lunch I started walking into the store, stops and decided to take my coat off because it was still a nice day. As I don't leave anything in the car, I put it in the trunk and shut it. Immediately I realized I locked the keys in the trunk, and lamented not bring me my car because of course, you can't lock the keys in he truck!

Yep, saved me this last week. Threw my golf clubs in the trunk and the damn trunk kept popping open and beeping. At first I was like wtf then I realized my keys were still in my bag.

ONLY if you have comfort access...

From what I've been told, if you don't, you will lock yourself out of your car.

Yes make sure u have comfort access. Make sure your connected drive account is setup for remote unlock.

Otherwise you get towed 150 miles. Bad day all around.

I have the X5M but I'll chime in here anyway. Last weekend went to Rhode Island for golfing and fishing, fishing didn't start until 2:15 so I skipped it because my beloved Yankees were playing at 4. While packing up the X5M after golfing I always put my keys and phone in my golf bag. After my friends put there bag in my trunk my friend closed the trunk not by pushing the button but slamming it shut with his hand. As soon as I turned around I yelled out "What thee f^*k are you doing my keys are....... and the trunk popped back open. Great feature.
