Damn ive been getting lucky with my 2010 328i. Thank you for your videos man. Stay safe out there

Thanks dean great vid will do this maybe in winter ❄️

Omg thank you for the information, so helpful, often find that I haven't parked straight so this will come in handy. Can you please do a video on the side blosters in the seats, I only have manual movement and want to activate them. I'm in the UK and happy to meet up and you my cosmetically modified e60M5, you'll love it.

Thank you for the video!! Waiting just for Finnish winter to come and then try this even tho I have block heater and a inside heater I can only use them at home cuz they need electricity.

Excellent tip I will try this! Perfect for cold start and warming engine up

As the Dr said in video,you dont do it on daily basis ...constant start stop is not good for the engine and it makes twice as corrosion (wear and tear)

Thanks for that info and that’s a very nice looking M5 as well. Looking forward to the next video 👍🏼

How do you retrofit (wire up) the rear sunshade on a LCI edition e60.

Thought it didn't work at first however when I did it i left the door open initially, then tried it again with the door shut then it worked. So thank you for this very handy tip

great channel bro and that is one fine beast you have its stunning looking

This also works on E82's without comfort access (2011 US model 128i). I use this feature when I pick up mail at post office or running into the gas station for beer ( I dont drink but my friends do)

I agree , best BMW channel and personal favourite

Here’s a couple of cool features of the key that owners with comfort access might not know about. If Your car is locked and you close your boot and accidentally leave the fob in there, the boot will automatically open instantly and the hazard lights will flash a few times too. Also if you have comfort access and you leave your fob in your pocket and just use the door handle to unlock the car and press the start button with the fob in your pocket, when you stop the car and get out, if you leave the fob in your pocket and just touch the recess in the door handle in front of the keyhole with your finger tip, the car will lock. I thought these were pretty cool features.

Nice m5 I'm trying to get a 545 or 550 of that Gen because I think the looks should also have a engine to with the aggressiveness

I actually found this out by accident few years ago in harsh winter, i was warming up the car and wanted to go inside to tell my gf to hurry up, then i turned the car off took the key out and thought to myself, damn, i could try to turn it on, and it worked. At first when i stepped out of the car and locked it i was sooo afraid it wont unlock, but it worked and everything was great. Great feature.

Very interesting Dean. Thanks for sharing!

Good day mate.. I would like to ask you, if I use to press the start/stop button twice when I start and stop the engine.. is it okay? Means, when I want to start. I insert the key knob and press the start button without press the brake pedal and let the lights go off in dash. then I press the brake pedal and press again the start button to start the engine..

Thanks Dean

Is it possible to have keyless start to be a permanent feature for as long as the key is within range? This business of going thru the process can become tedious if you have to do it every time you use the car.

Hi, does this work on the e91 business edition estate ?

Awesome just tried it on my E90 ....

Just quick question man if I have much fog inside the window and snow so this most be replaced? all good if I replace it? (BMw 1 series 118i E87) the problem musch fog inside the window on winter;/ its terrible it looks like the car cant handle it if weather is wet on the outside. Is it no atoher way to remove fo inside the windows this is soo big job too do;( it will be too expensive for me and cant do all by myeself fear to break something. pollen filter are good and egine filter is good but where is recirculation flaps on my car? or is it are more easy to replace. heater core on my car? flush heater core? and its good anitifreeze on my car and new heater motor;) the fans are likew new nor aircontion.And egine is cleaned and no bad smell on my air contion. And new termostat so maybe more less fog beause new termsotat and heat motor? So its dangerous too drive with bad heater core on the car?? So this can be the reason be car loose antifreeze before??

Hey bmw doctor, I understand this video has nothing to do with what im about to ask, I have a problem with my E46 320d 2002 M47 automatic, Its a smoke related problem. When the car is driven calm and normal for about a day.. And then you do a highway acceleration it smoke alot when it hits 2800rpm, spits out a whole cloud like as if it have been collecting diesel somewhere waiting to get burnt? Any thoughts? Grateful for any replies. Thanks :)

Damm that’s crazy works for me thank bro

Hi I need some help. I have a BMW 2 series F22 and after it has rained, I have water coming into the rear passenger footwell. It seems like the water is coming through the air vent under the passenger seat.

Supermarket fuel is as good as any other..it comes from the same tanks in the refineries/storage depots as any branded fuel. If anything its better as the turnover of fuel is greater and therefore fresher! Fuel is supplied from the nearest refinery of storage depot. For example if you buy BP fuel in south Wales it is almost certain to be brewed by Valero who own the old Texaco refinery. If you buy Texaco fuel in Hampshire then its made by Shell in Fawley. How do I know? I spent many years an an Excise officer for HM Customs and Excise in Milford Haven

Another for the key press long off and close window ,press long open from key and open window for bmw e60 and more from 2004 up..and that what you explain I redy know how work,but work only one time if turn off engine you no can turn again on if no put key again to open and again to stop and open again engine...

Hello. I have a problem with my key. I cant open or close it with key. I have Done the wiring fix in tailgate E61, replace new battery, and found a blown fuse 5amp antenna reciver. But it aint working. My FM radio SIGNAL is good. Any idea?

Does it have it for the E92 M3 as well

I like this better. then modern keyless entry. My work van i hate it so much keep loosing the key since its keyless.

Not just e60 e90 generation, even Mini r56 generation like r60 r61............you told us is not good to do this because we damage the ELV Steering Wheel Lock....it works, nothing to say, but I take for good what you told us that is doing a bit of damage to the ELV.....we can use it every now and then...🍻🍻🍻🍻

I have comfort access on my e90… I’m wondering for this way , is it in the manual ? Lol

Although this is a handy feature, I don't understand how it can be called comfort access - I thought comfort access removes the need to press the keyfob to gain entry to the vehicle and instead works on proximity between the fob and vehicle. The keyfob is still being pressed here to lock/unlock. Am I missing something?

Marian Osan - I had this problem with my E90 and it was a blown fuse under glove compartment that needed replaced. That's where I'd start. Check that first. The other problem I had was the boot would not close. I found that if you hold the button for the boot on the key fob for about 5 seconds or so. It resets it and the boot will then latch. Hope that helps solve your issue 👍🏼

Yes, emergency only. I see no point using this feature unless it's emergency. I don't even use this feature at all. I don't think repetitively start/stop is good for the starter all the time because you want to ______ for winter or summer.
