If you have comfort access you have to touch the ridged area on top of either front door handle (or use the button on the key) If you don't have comfort access then you have to press the button on the key just like the rest of us....

but isn't that the option for auto-locking the doors once you drive away and exceed (4?) mph?

No, this is for when you walk away from the car with the key. I need to have a look to see what time delay settings are available as I haven't looked in that menu for ages.

Sounds dangerous to me.... so you get your you car and can lock someone in just by walking away?

Also there have been no references to any comfort access enhancements on the coding forums and things normally show up in the available coding options before they appear in iDrive As I understand it, there are two auto-lock functions - auto lock doors when you exceed a certain speed (about 4-5mph) - auto lock (relock) the doors if you have unlocked the vehicle but not opened a door within a certain time interval (I believe that the default is 2 mins) If they've extended the comfort access functionality, then that's great, but I'd expect to have seen it documented somewhere

Pretty sure I didn't used those words, but what PerryGunn said is correct - the doors will lock automatically if you unlock them but don't open them. I just hadn't remembered it correctly!

My Lexus does exactly that 30 seconds after the doors are unlocked but my X3 doesn't seem to have ever learned that trick.

But yes it is correct that if you unlock the car and then dont open a door after 30secs it will lock itself again (as do many cars). It protects against accidentaL key operations.

This is old technology still not found in BMW 2014-15 =\
My 2006 Cadillac has Auto-Lock feature when I would turn off the engine, open and close the doors walk away after 10 seconds. I never had to touch my keyfob to unlock nor to lock.
