I dont know if its posted before but when you press the unlock button
3 times the windows will go down for about 10cm when you open the door
and when you close it they will go up to their place. If you open the door without this
the windows go down for about 0,5-1cm like usual. ONLY FOR E92 Coupes.
I figured it myself

I have a neat feature in my E91, every time I open my center console I find a pack of smokes!, not too sure how long it takes to reset but works most days.

press ignition button once more after car off without clutch and lioghts will shut off

e90post forum has issues when the page count exceeds 74

[Shahaed]

It says there is a 75th page. Lies, just like the trunk thing. Didn't work for me.

Is this function removed from the newer model cars? I don't seem to recall it on my 2011.

With comfort access you can open the trunk while the car remains locked...the best part, however, is that if you throw the key in the trunk and close it, the lights blink and the trunk pops back open. it's impossible to lock them in the trunk. Maybe this is also the case without comfort access...not sure. cool feature though!

Question:
What the hell is "Your kid" doing,
A/ in the front seat and
B/ not wearing a seat belt or strapped into a child seat!!!!

not being restrained will allow the said child to leave sticky finger prints and god forbid "Foot prints on the seats" !!!

and apparently may be slightly dangerous,

if you floor your at highways speeds and click the pedal once while being floor it will make the car change to the next lower gear.

This is called "Kick down" and has been on all European Automatic transmission cars for over 30 years it is used for quick overtaking on the "highway" nothing new, nice to know you guys on that side of the pond have atleast joined the 20th Century, we are now in the 21st, join us if you want to.

I believe it was removed, yes. I think I had an '09 loaner awhile back and it didn't have the feature...I love it.

Yes... it was removed.

However, there was a member here that figured out a way to code it back in (search).

I was adjusting my mirrors yesterday and noticed the black button next the mirror controls and was like, what the hell is this for, pressed it and watched my mirrors fold in! I saw all the posts of people complaining they couldn't fold mirrors in with remote unless you have 2006 e90 but never saw anyone mention it could still be done from in the car. Will make taking the car cover off a lot easier.

Found this one today. So if you are using the voice recognition dialer for the phone and say "Dial Number" then say "Fuck It" the phone voice comes back with "*" "#". Try it, it's funny.

Not in the US. I think the comment was about the button on the driver's arm rest.

I was trying to test the "lock doors after x time" function on my '07 E92 which apparently doesn't work... However if you leave the radio or a cd playing and you turn off the engine & leave the car (not locking) after less than a minute the stereo will stop playing even though its still on, if you then move back closer to the car (say within ~2m or 6 feet) the stereo starts playing music again?! Still, my autolock feature doesn't seem to be working =(

[wdeerfield]

I found while washing the car with a hose, if you have the key in your pocket and the water touches the door handles, it unlocks/locks
