To F31 owners regarding load cover automatically raised when opening the tailgate/win
This is for F31 owners around the world, just a quick question regarding about whether your touring load cover automatically raised when you open your back window/tailgate?
In Australia F31 Touring Brochure, this is listed as standard feature, but i can only lift the load cover manually, not AUTOMATICALLY as stated on the brochure. So far i know three F31 australia owner can't get the load cover raised automatically upon opening.

if they change the word automaically, then it's fine. The sentence is ever confusing, the load cover is raise automatically when you pull the handle, but not when you open the back window/tailgate!
Someone in BMW needs to check the correct English grammar!

Wonder why they have dropped the feature in the F31, as it is only a catch mechanism to release and allow the cover guides up the runners. HighlandPete |

is this still not happening on the latest models i.e. how do you raise the load cover when you open the glass tailgate?

It is totally manual on the F31 despite the brouchure saying it is automatic. It doesn't go up or down automatically.
The F11 automatic system is much better where it goes up and down electronically. Some people prefer the F31 system over the E91/E61 where it popped up automatically but you'd then forget to pull it down. Last edited by RichardM; 11-23-2013 at 04:07 AM.. |

On the F30 the auto open on the bootlid is for cars with Comfort Access. Possibly the same for F31?
