Trunk close with keyfob?

Has anyone been able to code in the ability to close the trunk with the keyfob, with the power tailgate option? From what I have read it may require programming the keyfob, which I don't think is possible with the normal tools?

It is very easy to do in esys. There are cheat codes that let you do this, as well as close it from the door button inside the car.

Thanks! I still need to get a copy of esys. Waiting to hear back after I forwarded my donation receipt.

Don't you just hold the tailgate button on the fob?

Works on my UK 330i with power tailgate/comfort...

Seems they disabled it for us Yanks, for our safety I guess. We always were prone to hurting ourselves with our trunks.

🤣🤣 Ah... it's bit odd really, I don't see why they would disable it?!

I mean, we can't even drink our coffees or use our gas cans without suing people, so...
You should see us with our motorized garage doors!
Hell, even the default behavior of pulling the trunk button to close the tailgate requires you to keep holding it until the entire trunk is closed - otherwise it just stops - after making a giant fuss with lights and alarm beeps warning the neighborhood you're closing your trunk.

Where did you find the tailgate function module. I looked through every available module and their expert modes on bimmercode. Have most recent TestFlight. Please let me know. I’d love to have this option.

The module was called "HKFM_2015" for me.

You don't need to go to expert mode. It is one of the options in their regular ECU menus.

You’ll have it if your car has an electronic tail gate. Mine doesn’t and that module isn’t present in my bimmercode app
