key slot on 535?
My wife's 535i (2011 model) doesn't seem to have a slot in the dash in which to put the key. We have the Comfort Access, so I know it isn't needed. However, I know other BMW's with CA tell you to put the key in occasionally to charge it. Is the slot somewhere I can't find, or is it simply non-existent on this model?

I don't know about the 2011 models, but my 2008 535 has a key slot. Thing is, it doesn't charge the key. Comfort access uses a replaceable battery, non CA models charge the key.
If CA is standard now, they wouldn't need a key slot.

 Truth is, I had already found the part that showed how to replace the battery. However, since even rechargeable batteries require replacement eventually, it didn't answer my question. Quote:

Suggests that the 1 series is available without Comfort Access, which would then require the key slot.

The newer models are doing away with the key slot. You should have seen me looking around for it the first time I got in an F01 7 series... I guess the key slot is now officially your pocket.
