Sunroof Auto Close When It's Raining Above 80 mph

Motohip · 12-21-2014, 01:01 PM

I had my sunroof open while it was raining and once I got up to 80 mph the sunroof closed by itself and wouldn't let me open it until I slowed down. My car was coded to close the roof when it rains but I thought it did it when it was parked. Anyone else's roof do this? Is it my coding?

Don't know. I've never had my sunroof open while going over 80.

Mine doesn't close at any speed. Must be the coding.

Prett sure I want that coding.

Did this with the BMWhat app...If only we could code the sunroof and windows to close while the car is parked and ignition is off.

I know you CAN do this, because my car does. Not BMWhat though, a friend coded it for me. Windows up w/lock button and mirrors fold in.

Yeah, I have that coded as well, but what I'm talking about is without being near the car and without manually doing with the key fob. Like say, you're at the mall and your windows and sunroof are cracked open. It would be nice if the rain sensor would identify rain so it would close all windows up without you being around.

that's what it was supposed to be coded as but it never worked. guess I have to be moving at a high rate of speed.
