Any way to close windows using remote?

amlebede · 04-29-2009, 08:07 PM

Is there any way to close windows using a remote? I know how to open them but not close them.

SteveMD · 04-29-2009, 08:08 PM

Not in the US. Too many lawyers.

You have to use the actual metal key from your key fob. Put key in lock, turn to lock and hold. Windows and sunroof will close.

i think its a safety issue. The new Accords has them too but to close the window you have to stick your key into the lock and do it manually.

No, you can't close the windows with the remote from a distance like you can open them from a distance.

It works. But you look kinda goofy standing by the car with your thumb on the handle.

Sorry but not for you.
Cannot live in Charlotte, NC to get that.

Nope, safety issue was their main reason.

via the Reference Guide:

"Press and hold [the Roundel] to close windows and moonroof."

I haven't actually tried it though.

An Autologic should be able to enable the European window-closing functionality. I've seen it done on other models but not sure if they've got coding for E90s yet.
