Open & CLOSE windows / roof remotely

Guys,

We all have seen a lot of questions and discussions around the fact that while you can open all your windows and roof remotely, to close them you need to put the key in the lock and hold in the close position.

Yesterday, a guy demonstrated that he could both open and close all his windows and roof with the buttons on his 2002 X5 key???

How's that possible? Anyone else can do this?
I want that feature too...

You can do this with cars from europe, mine does it and I`m in the UK. You can also have the feature turned on in the USA I believe but not sure how.

Yep I can. The manual states it page 30 of the 2004 manual. Press and hold the unlock button. Wala everything opens

Can you CLOSE it though? Looks like it works in the Europe versions only.

Nope, no closey! (In the US). You can open as much as you want remotely, including the roof, but not close. You need to have the key in the door to do so. However, the rumor is, that BMW can program the key/car to do so. Anyone else heard that? Is it BS?
