Hey...so the trunk button from within the cabin near the left foot of the driver...does close the trunk, as well. I forget if you need to press down or pinch up...but all you need to do is continuously hold it. So try it. Hold it down or up for 5 seconds. I too have a 19 model completion. I did my breakin in December...so maybe they gave me software update.

You can make a shortcut with one of the presets for the radio for the back climate control. Just hover over the rear climate and hold one of the preset buttons!!

as a former F90 M5 owner I'll add. 1) Lane assist is not as good as Tesla's, it doesn't keep the perfect middle of the lane, my wife has a 2020 X5 and this one is more like Tesla in precision in lane-keeping, it even changes the lanes on itself. 2) wireless charge, correct, very inconvenient, I have an iPhone XS Max, very hard to get it back. 3) brakes - the main reason I traded it back, they squick like crazy, and dealership won't do anything about it. 4) Apple CarPlay- the screen doesn't extend to the full screen, this was fixed in the latest BMW models. Other than that, great car and all you said is correct.

you need to have the technology pack to get the smart key

Well done now I am sure that I will be getting the 2020 BMW m5 competition

You’ve probably received answers here but the seats are “ventilated” but not cooled according to BMW. On the trunk if you continue to lift up on the trunk button it should close the trunk, however if you release the button before it’s fully closed it will stop closing. This can be coded using “Bimmer Code” and an OBD2 adapter.

Use the sync button to set all the same

[The_Silversurfer]

The same way you open the trunk. Once ready to close it with push and hold down on the button until trunk closes

problem 1 : Climate control sync, just with one button? you can do it. program the desired setting on one of the short cut key (1-8) and with one press, you get what you want. Ask any BMW garage how to program it if you have problem.

[OMG]

It does close and open you just have to hold it. I have an 18 and I can open it and close it from the driver seat no problem you just have to hold it up or hold it down

I just want to say you sir are blessed this is the car I dream about but can’t afford I currently have 2013 f02 740li even tho tons of people would love to have my car I can always find details I dislike just as you do with your beautiful car take care of it happy holidays

[jillybeann]

I also have an F90 M5 Competition for about a year now. I'm loving the car so far. Best I've owned so far.

[ilovenathi]

To close the boot from inside the car, you need to flick the button twice

[christiankytoh]

Do you not know what those numbers on the entertainment do? Those are presets to take you to menu options. You can program the rear temp control screen to be one of those buttons.

[emancebo]

Any engine/electric problems? What do you think about the reliability?

[rgal]

My trunk closes whenever I hold up the trunk button long enough. I didn’t realize it at first because you need to hold it up longer than you would expect. It’ll beep and close simultaneously. If yours is beeping but doesn’t close it’s an issue with your car.

[jobisrael]

I know this is a 2019 version I do hope the 2020 and up do have remote start for the price. 02-20-24

[camarochris]

Did you get the remote start figured out?

[austinp]

Hey brother what exactly is done to your headlights? Can’t tell if they are painted on the inside or just tinted

[joshchelvolski]

Does it have an eco mode so you can save gas when your stuck in traffic. I hate see the gas meter drop faster then it supposed to. I current have a 2016 kia soul ex which is taking alot of gas due to a clutch lock up solenoid. The scary part of it is that my dealership says it will prematurely wear out my souls clutch rings.
