Hi everyone,

In short: 1-series convertible key fob doesn't open only windows when long pressing unlock but also opens the convertible roof slightly?

I recently bought a 2012 BMW 118D Cabriolet. Nice car, but one annoyance. The key fob can be used to open the windows by long pressing unlock. It can also be used to open the canvas roof by pressing the unlock even way longer. Here's the annoying part: If I press the unlock key only slightly long and remove my finger, it's supposed to only open the windows but apparently the roof opens also even so slightly: I get the "canvas roof open" warning in the drive computer if attempting to drive after opening the windows with the key fob. Then I have to press the roof close button to make the warning go away.

Does anyone know can anything be done about this? I'd imagine you're supposed to be able to open the windows without cracking the roof as well. Am I using the key fob wrong somehow?
