[/quote]It also should open the doors, and take care of your personal (key) settings when you get close to the car.

My Ride: 2004 March E60 530i, Titanium Silver with Black Dakota Leather, Style 124 18" Alloy, Active Steering, Adaptive headlights, Auto-Dim Int+Folding Ext Mirrors, Auto Aircon Advanced, Brushed Aluminium Trim, CD Changer, Comfort Seats, De-Chrome, Dynamic Drive, Electric Glass Sun Roof, Graduate Tinted Windscreen, Heated Front Seats, Natvigation Professional, Sport Steering wheel, Sun Protection Glass, TV function
It also should open the doors, and take care of your personal (key) settings when you get close to the car.
I would say it unlocks the door rather than open the door.
Well, not sure...

It unlocks the door when you put your hand inbetween the handle and the door, sothat whn you pull the handle the door is unlocked
