Ironically, pressing and then continuing to press on the bumpy part of the door handle will lock the X5 and then CLOSE all the the windows and sun roof (called Comfort Closing). I guess the question is whether this works correctly all the time on all X5s. Or is every case reported really a key fob operator mistake.

FWIW those of us without comfort access can close all our windows and doors too. But here in the US we have to use the little physical key in the electronic key fob. IOW BMW wants us to be in physical contact with the X5 to avoid liability for anyone who might get hurt by a closing window etc.
