Thanks for that but could not find anything as the 6 series you have to push the BMW logo to open boot
I didn't realize that...does the BMW logo actually move when you press it? There could be a similar microswitch arrangement behind it...

I did a little checking and found a couple documents that show how to get to the little switch behind the BMW logo on the 6 series.

If you're mechanically inclined and want to dig a little deeper, take a look at the following two documents:

Removing trim for rear lid:
RA__Removing_and_installing_or_replacing_trim_for_rear_lid.pdf
Removing button for rear lid actuation:

If "OPEN SESAME" fails, then try "ABAKADABRA". That's all I got, I'm out. You're on your own now...
