Hi guys,

On my 530i, if I hold down the unlock button, the windows open. The lock button then closes them.

On the Z4, however, it doesn't seem to do this. Is it supposed to?

Also, is it possible to get the Z4 to open/close the roof from the key?

Ta!

I think you can only open the roof/windows with the key, my E92 will not close on it, think its a safety thing.

The key appears to offer no control of anything window related whatsoever.

Even if you hold the unlock button down?

Yup.. just doesn't do it. I'm familiar with how it should work becuase my 530i Sport does it frown

The Z4 can do it, I believe 2004 cars onwards can, but needs programming in.

You can buy a module (Reinhold IIRC) that also does it, and adds a couple of extra features (e.g. don't have to hold the button).
