What do i need to do to get my windows up with the remote, i can roll them down, but unable to roll them back up, i need to put the key in the door and hold it in the close position for about 10 seconds.

Welcome aboard, baldor18.

Please update your location and signature.
If you're in US, you can't. If you're in Europe, roll up windows by holding the lock button.

Its a option the dealer can activate or deactivate in the Car/Key memory using their DIS or GT1 computers

That sounds about right, and it appears that you are in U.S.

You can thank the litigation system you have w/ you countrymen. The remote close function is disabled for all US market BMWs.

Well since it was disabled can it be re-enabled?
