Windows rolling up can be programmed or "coded" very easily if you want that feature, but will cost you some $

It's in the I-Drive....
Select Climate Select Parked car operation Set the timer (there are two available timers to set) That's it. The fan comes on at the set time and runs for (I Think) 20 minutes (I don't have my owners manual with me right now). You have to start the car and drive to be able to do this again (to keep from draining the battery). To the OP.......Sorry for the thread jack.

It's in the programming. My 06 A4 had both unlock doors, roll down windows, and open sunroof if you press the unlock button a second time and then hold it. Then, if you want lockup, close the sunroof, and roll up the windows, then you press and hold the lock button. Safety is provided by the anti-pinch control, which works very nicely even in our cars. Get a stick and try to close your sunroof or windows. When the window/roof hits the stick, the window/roof will retract. It doesn't require a lot of force to activate the anti-pinch, it's pretty responsive and safe. I don't think BMW disable this due to safety lawsuit reasons. After all Audi/VW still offer this. I keep forgetting to do it, but next time I'm going to ask the dealer to program this feature "on", and see what they say. It can't take but a few minutes, so even if there is a charge it'll probably be the 1/2 hour minimum, $40 or $50 bucks. They should just do it for free, cause they should ask the customer if they want this feature when we pick up our new cars. Hell, it's already in there and we paid for it to begin with! |

I went to my service center last week here in Germany and he told me no more then 40-50 Euro to program this in to my car. Could take up to an hour to program. I’ll be making an appt this week. I’ll let you know if the numbers above change.

It is indeed the comfort package that lets you lower or raise the top with the remote. The modification will also let you raise or lower with a tap of the dash button from inside the car, however, as opposed to having to hold the button down.

The mod you are referring to is $350 . Seems like a lot of money to avoid holding down the button for 15 seconds. I considered it, but the price is prohibitive for me.
