This is my favorite option out of everything else, i'm fully loaded and the keyless option is by far the best. It's favored by the ladies, they get very impressed when you don't have to unlock it with a key fob, it's also equivalent to heated seats as a matter of impressing them. The Keyless access is so convenient, just tap the door handle and it's locked, grab the handle and it's opened, jump in, hit the clutch n brakes, press start, and you're off. it's totally worth it.

Yes you can you go into settings and look for doors or something, the same place where you can choose to lock your doors automatically while you drive. So yes you can optimize it to open all doors just as you touch the drivers groove.

Actually, you only need to push the clutch in.

Of course, you're all missing the most important point. If I had a guy named Alfred to take care of all that stuff for me, I'd be driving the Batmobile to work, not my E90.

I wonder if CA is standard equipment on the Batmobile...

I think it is CA+... I seem to remember Batman speaking into his fob and telling his car to stop, since it was driving on its own...

i thought it would be a waste too but wow after experiencing it.. its amazing deffinite must have for any car owner and definitely worth the money

[omg516]

I have it, love it, would never get another BMW without it.

I have a 2 week old 335i and I ended up with the CA and love it. Maybe I was used to it as my last 2 cars were infiniti's. I was on the fence but since I found one color I wanted etc, I bought it and spent the extra $500 for the CA.

worth it to me, I love it.

best feature imo is you can get out of the car with windows/sunroof open, just hold your hand on the door handle and the car locks and rolls up the windows and closes the sun roof. great feature!!

Love mine. I just keep my key in my 5th pocket (jeans) and never have to worry about it. Just gotta remember to take it out and put it in the ignition for valets.

And also when you wash your jeans?

Comfort access is the best thing ever! haha. It really comes in handy when you have your hands full and can't grab your key out of your pocket/purse. Only downside is that you should drive the car with the key in at least every few months to charge the key battery.

Yes.
I curse everytime I try to find my key to unlock my E46 while holding a handful of grocery bags.

CA does not have rechargeable battery, you are supposed to replace it when it runs low.

Where did you hear this? My CA told me to make sure I drive with it in atleast once every few months to keep it charged.

CA strikes again. Take a look at the battery. It's absolutely not rechargeable. But you should put the fob in the dashboard slot before the car goes in for service so that the car can tell the fob how it feels.

[raleedy]

Those of you with CA, do you keep your door unlock settings on "all" or on "driver door only"? If it's the latter, how do you let passengers in? Do you leave them out in the cold, yanking uselessly on the door handle while you climb in the car and fumble for the unlock button, or do you fish in your pocket or purse or briefcase for the fob?

[Lodaka]

I couldn't figure out how to deal with letting passengers in; so, I just have CA to unlock all doors.

I keep it on "All", gets me irritated when I want to put something in the back seat and I have to actually use the fob to open it.

[Herknav]

+1 I almost always have something to put in the back seat or a passenger, so it is all unlock for me.

If I could change anything, I would make the car lock faster than it does when I touch the handle...
