Why does my car want to unlock itself as I walk away from it?
Hi everyone,
08 e92 335xi N54 here with iDrive and Comfort Access (if it matters). Every now and then, when I walk away from my car after pressing the center lock button on the FOB, the car insists on unlocking itself either immediately after or after a few seconds, usually after I've walked out of range of the key, forcing me to walk back and keep locking it. As far as I can tell, this has nothing to do with whether or not the door or trunk is accidentally ajar or the headlights are on, as they never are. Is this a really stupid feature of comfort access that I'm missing?

Come to think of it, this might make sense, as sometimes when it's reallllly cold I'll get a "trunk ajar" warning while driving. But when I get out to close it, it's already closed. So maybe it's a sensor in the trunk going bad?

Nope! I think it may be the wiring loom on the trunk lid. I randomly will get the "trunk open"' code in iDrive when it actually isn't open which points to a faulty wire or connection
