Nope it doesn’t come with easy entry.

I haven’t seen coding for it yet either.

If you mean can you drop the window as you get in? Yes. Double press of the unlock on the fob.

Easy entry is when the seat moves back automatically when the door is opened. Then when the door is closed it goes back to it’s set position. Allowing for…easy entry lol

No idea why you’d want that in a car where glaciers move faster than the seats

not op, but ive tried a million times and its not working for me. ive even tried with both the 'passenger unlocks with button' off and on and no luck. i must be doing something wrong but that feature would come in handy for me.

do you hold down the unlock on the second press or quick release like the first click?

Just press the unlock button on the fob twice in quick succession and then open the door.
The manual does state “depending on the settings the window will lower…” but doesn’t mention what the settings are.
I would imagine that the vehicle must be locked before you do the double press would be one of them.

Tries it a bunch of times and haven’t been able to get it to work. Will have to think through the relevant settings that may be interfering.

same. just tried the pressing button twice thing and no luck. i saw a youtube short on it too from an m240i US-based (i believe) so i know its possible and others have done it too. oh, to be in my 20s again when my brain could figure it out lol.

If you play with sound you’ll hear the spacing between fob clicks

I’ve got it currently set to unlock as I get near the car with the fob. Have a feeling I need to disable that feature.

Thanks for the clip showing how it should work though!
