Hands free trunk open/close

2022 X6 M50i

Can’t seem to get this to work. I’m tech savvy and watched YouTube videos on it and no luck. Anyone reporting issues? Is there an on/off setting I am missing?

there is no setting to enable.

do you have your key fob on you?

did you option the tow hitch? If so, hands-free kick-to-open feature is removed.

also, you inquired on this issue with another thread last month. why the new, separate thread?

I was told to make a quick kick in and back.

I find it doesn't work reliably.

The funny thing is when working on the car if something happens to swing in that area I've had the trunk open.

I certainly won't miss it w/the hitch.

Do you have tow package?
If you do, you don't have the trunk comfort access.

There's a setting to be activated in Idrive in order to activate the hand free trunk open/close:

CAR
Settings
Door / Vehicle Access
Tailgate
Select the feature open and close with the foot

There is a “sweet spot” I do more of a sweep motion. Mine works reliably and I also have a stealth hitch so I coded back the kto.

I've had my car for less than a month, but it's worked every single time for me.

My SA told me to kick directly behind the middle, also, stand an arm length's away from the car. You don't want to be too close!
