i think the poster means how to close it via the remote control, without inserting the key in the driver-side keyhole. my audi a4 (2002/8E) had to be vag-comm'd and reprogrammed to do it. after which holding down the LOCK button closed all windows and closed the sunroof. mike

YOu can notturn the option. US dealers are told not because of US regulations. Some dealers don't even know how to. I tried 3 delaerships with my E46 with no luck. The samewas reportes by other fellow bimmers... SUCKS!!
So no remote window close, no rear reflectors, WHAT ELSE!
