As it should, US & Canada are the ones that don't get it.....

Those with comfort access can press and hold the lock "sensor" on the door handles to close the windows too.. At least it is so in Canada.

I'll check later on, and post back my results...
But IMO, it's pretty pointless... If you're standing close enough to hold the lock button on the door. might as well get it and press the accessory on and close everything with the automatic features. Instead of standing there with your finger on the button.
Using the key FOB at distance would be the ticket(like the Euro models)... I will check this as well.

Yes, it works great with comfort access. I found it useful when I realized one of the windows or the sunroof was left open. I run outside with the key and just touch (hold) the top of the doorhandle to close (everything). It's a nice convenience, but of course not completely necessary.

The reason why they probably allow this to work and not the remote is because you can visually verify nothing is in the way, instead of standing 25ft away and doing it.

Ok, we've established that the windows/moonroof won't close with the remote for US/Canadian models... THAT SUCKS... But I am thinking that this should be an "easy software setting". Does anyone know if this is a setting that the dealer can do?

There is not a BMW in the USA that has the press and close feature like the press and open. It has been talked about in almost every forum out there. UK yes USA no...
