Help with Coding Options

Hi All,

Have been trying, without success, to enable the opening of the tailgate while the vehicle is locked. I have asked BMW and they claim this has been deliberately 'written out of the software' to prevent people from locking their key in the car. This only applies to vehicles without Comfort Access. I'm assuming that when they say written out of the software, they mean simply disabled. I've gone through the HU_CICHB unit and have found several possible settings in the 3000 HMI,78 folder. I've attached screenshots of the ones I feel are relevant. Can anyone advise if changing any of these to active would help?

Also, although I don't have CA, what would happen if I enabled it anyway? As vehicles with CA CAN open their tailgate when locked I thought this might be a workaround. However I don't want to corrupt anything by enabling something which my vehicle simply doesn't have.

Any pointers would be helpful.
