Hi Dave, That certainly doesn't seem right, but mine doesn't operate like that. ( see my original post ) Ian

Hi Dave, On a 2022 118i, there is no separate valet switch. All functions are selected via idrive and there is no facility to configure the tailgate function separately. Ian

Hi Dave Yes I have 2 keys and they both operate in the same way so I don't think it is the fob at fault. The main BMW dealer salesman insists that the way the fob operates is correct but frankly I don't believe him. That's why I'm asking current members with my model to confirm how theirs operate. I want enough evidence before contacting the dealer service manager and book the car in to be fixed. In truth it is not a major problem to me, but if it's not right I want it fixed as a matter of principal. Ian

Hi Dave, I don't have the Comfort Opening feature within idrive on my car. Ian

Hi Dave, thanks for your reply. I've looked through utube and there is nothing relating to boot unlock button opening doors as well. There is nothing in idrive drivers profile that refers to programming boot unlocking. Regards Ian

I have just bought a 2022 Series 1 118i M Sport which at the moment am very happy with. I noticed that when I press the hatch/boot opening button on the key fob, all the doors unlock also. In fact this button does exactly the same thing as pressing the door opening button on the fob. I queried this with the main dealer - Listers of Kings Lynn - and they told me that this was how it was supposed to operate. I find this quite unbelievable as there is no point in having 2 buttons on the fob that do exactly the same thing. On other marques that I have owned , the hatch/boot opening button only unlocks the boot as I would expect. Can any Series 1 owners confirm that the fob is working as it should and the opening buttons do exactly the same thing. Thanks

Just bought a 22 plate 118i M sport. I have a question re the key fob operation but I will post that in the appropriate section. Regards, Taurian
