How do you open a BMW trunk without the key?

I recently bought a used BMW from a private seller. I feel pretty confident that I understand the ins and outs of the car, but there’s one thing I’m a little unclear about. How can I open my BMW trunk without the key?

The ability to unlock your trunk without using your manual key can add a world of convenience to your driving experience. Unfortunately, this feature isn’t always obvious to most drivers.
To open your

trunk without the key:
  • Sit down in the driver’s seat and take a look around. You should see a button with an icon of a car with the trunk open.
  • Press this button to open and close the trunk.
Alternatively, you can use your key fob to unlock the trunk by pressing the button to unlock all doors. Typically, your BMW should have a manual handle that will allow you to open the trunk as well.
