R56 Opening the bonnet from the FOB
Opening the bonnet from the FOB
EDIT: By bonnet, I meant boot!!
How is this accomplished? I can't figure it out...
I have the alarm system, so I know if I hold it for 2 seconds the alarm goes off. Other than that, I got it to unlock once (not sure how).
How exactly does it unlock? Should your doors be locked or unlocked? And is there a way to get it to open all the way, or does it just pop open a little for you?
Thanks for any help!

Not the Bonnet, but the "Boot" can be opened with the Comfort Access FOB. There is a separate button on the FOB for the Boot. You can also press the Button on the Door Handle and that will unlock all doors including the Boot.
Don't hold it for 2seconds. It takes about 1 second maybe a tad more to pop the hatch. It's a fine balance between opening the hatch or setting off the alarm. I set it off about 4 times demonstrating that "feature" to my friends.
Wow, I know the boot is the trunk.......I guess I'm brain dead from finals week
Anyway, thanks for the help!

What I'd like to figure out is how to open the boot with the fob in the ignition and the engine running. I've been shutting the engine off and pulling the fob if I forget something I wanted out of the boot.

I have the factory alarm so I can't hold the button down too long or it will trigger the alarm.
The factory alarm isn't listed in your sig which would have been a different reply then.
