I'm glad you said this. I just thought it was because my battery was getting low. I miss being able to unlock/lock my car from inside of my house.

Kinda off topic, but I hate that there isn't an audible sound when you lock the car (unless you have the alarm system installed).

Is it possible to retrofit comfort access? I know a lot of BMW systems are pre-wired and you just need to plug in a module/equipment. Never really thought I'd care about it, but it does sound kinda nice!

Mine's audible (locks clicking) but soft so you have to listen carefully. Try washing the car with the fob in your pocket and the repeated clicking when spraying the door handle with water is quite noticeable.

Actually, with all the noise pollution surrounding us, I'm happy there is no option for a horn honk when locking or unlocking - some BMWs still have class!

It took me about 3 days to figure out I could just push the Start Button without the Fob. I also hate the fact that I have to walk back to my car everytime I lock it because I can't tell if it worked or not. I think if Im more then 4 feet away it does not respond. On a good note I do love the little arms that hand me my seatbelt every day.

CA is the one feature on my car I didn't get and would in the future. But, I do like returning to my car in the parking lot and having to press the button to unlock it and watching how the door handle lights illuminate the parking lot, especially at night
