It sure is and one day I was like WTF how do I get into trunk and went through the backseat. Pulling the emergency cable to release the trunk then I tripped out finding the switch lock out mechanism in glove compartment
Most people do not like reading.... User manuals including.... 😂 IT s like they are în school again and they have to read a book.... "Boring, my eyes hurt, i f I read a few rows i m getting sleepy" 😂. Sad but True....
the whole reason for the key blade is that when you go to valet your car you release the blade and give the valet the fob. you then keep the mechanical key which secures glove box and trunk and keeps them out of your car. many brands had some variant on this theme even shipping cars with a different key for the glovebox vs the ignition. so the feature is you keep the key they get the fob. Maybe you remember on e30s where there was a separate lock position on the trunk that didnt operate with the electric door? they had a separate key that only did doors and ignition and a different code did doors trunk and ignition most people just didnt bother ordering that key from the dealership

I have a 2010 328i and it’s been down for almost a year, it’s cranking and not starting and I can’t figure out why, I’m getting desperate and I need help😭, if you could help give me some answers that would be awesome! I’ve done everything I could think of and nothings working
Great vid I wonder how many have spent money buying parts to try and fix it yes it may be in the manual if still there but if you didn't know about this feature would you look Hopefully this will help people out
I’m pretty sure I’ve seen the E90 335d with that option It could be to stop people opening their boots in the pockets because I’ve known a lot of people come out to their car in the morning and their boot being wide open because the button pushed in the pocket from inside the house
Hi there, your channel has been very useful for me for several years, now I have a 2013 X3 100K miles, has a camshaft sensor problem, I replace both sensors, cleaned the valves and after a few days, changed oil filter, PCV Valve and happened to have the same issue. Code is P013C9. Any idea of what can it be?
Thanks bro atleast I know how to lock the boot for good on my 4 series BMW to stop it automatically opening all because I sat on my keys or because my baby daughter pressed the boot button.
Shoutout to the place I bought my E92 from for not knowing about this. They gave me $1,000 off asking price thinking the trunk was faulty. A few minutes on google and I was able to find the switch and turn it back on. 😂
Yeah, if this guy spent as much time reading the owners manual as he does making videos, maybe he could make useful videos rather than examples of what happens when the owner does not RTFM. -__-
hello good afternoon, the author of the channel, I am writing to you from Kyrgyzstan, I am engaged in repairing a hybrid car, people have started buying cars with the BMW 330e brand from America, Korea at auctions after an accident, the car starts but does not charge a 12 volt battery, something turns off the charging as you can rush this program, you can momoch me, I will pay for an answer from you and more can you give me your social networks so that I can write directly and explain the situation from the car, I could not figure out which blocks the crash is stored on and how to remove them so that the 12 volt charging starts working hello kind battery
Hilarious "BMW Doctor" Misdiagnosed his BMW... I'm sorry Guy... I couldn't help but giggle
Just another case of READ THE OWNER'S MANUAL 🙂
I have this feature on my 2006 E90. The switch is in the glove compartment.
It sure is and one day I was like WTF how do I get into trunk and went through the backseat.
Pulling the emergency cable to release the trunk then I tripped out finding the switch lock out mechanism in glove compartment
You got to be kidding me. @@joehernandez6260. I was doing the same exact thing.
Amazing how many people don't read their owners manual, it the first thing I do after buying a car. 🇦🇺
Not sure I'd call anything that's in the owner's manual "hidden".

Isn't this just your normal valet mode feature? It's in the owners manual.
Thanks Dean.

Any idea why the boot fob button doesn’t do anything on my E91?
Should i do the e shaft sensor with VCG if oil is accumulating
replace the gasket …
Got e90 318i 2006 how do I locate ground cable and how do I test if it is bad ground ... doesn't crank or start
Dean in your honest opinion which car do you prefer the E60 3.0i or the 630i and why
I have a 2010 328i and it’s been down for almost a year, it’s cranking and not starting and I can’t figure out why, I’m getting desperate and I need help😭, if you could help give me some answers that would be awesome! I’ve done everything I could think of and nothings working
That had to be an expensive lesson. My condolences. 😢

Also the E46 you can secure the luggage compartment separately and thus disconnect it from the central locking system.

People must not read anymore these days. Owners manuals should come in video form for this new generation
Top man!
I knew it locked the centre console but didn't realise it locks the boot
Thankfully D9ock from 🇮🇪 ireland 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
R.T.F.M. as they say!
Yeah, if this guy spent as much time reading the owners manual as he does making videos, maybe he could make useful videos rather than examples of what happens when the owner does not RTFM.

Hotel switch
That’s crazy
Volvo is the same if you lock the glove box
Now at least all the thieving valets can get into your boot and armrest locker without a problem......
hence you release the fob and keep the key on your keychain with you leaving the valet with out the key.
