Mini Cooper R57 opening of convertible with key FOB

Demonstrating the opening of the convertible using the key fob in the R57. Little known fact is although you can open the roof with the fob you can't close the roof with the remote. But you can close the roof with hidden key in the key fob turning the the lock on the drivers door. Hope you enjoyed the demo.

Does the car battery level need to be a certain level for it to work?

What year is this mini cooper

[@Boburto]

If you have the BMW software ( i can't remember the name right now) you can enable auto close with the close button. i did this on my old R56.

Hey how did you do this?

[@Boburto]

@@benjaminsharp7838 you need BMW ISTA software and a programming cable.

[@benjaminsharp7838]

Can I download that on a Mac? Also what cable is it I need? It is simple to do lol? Do you reccomend getting an OBD (for example a Carly OBD)?
