My Ride: 2007 BMW 530i
I owned this 07 530i for only 1 week so far and first time parked in my garage cause it was really hot and sunny outside so I didnt want to get the leather messed up (no tint yet).
Well anyways an hour or so after I parked (in the garage) and came back cause I forgot something, all the windows was rolled down and the sunroof was open. It was weird cause I didn't touch anything at all.
Is this something the e60 does in a garage or something? haha cause it freaked me out!

+1 Happened to me and my '07 was parked outside in the rain! Fortunately the alarm went off and I caught the situation before the interior got soaked.
The next morning I ordered leather key fob covers!! No repeat performances since then and I always keep the comfort access fobs in my pocket.

Basically if you keep your unlock button on the key fob pressed for 4 to 5 seconds or so all the windows and the sunroof will open up.
Now if only we can get it to close the same way that would be swell
