Trunk Button

Hi, does anyone know if its possible to disable the button on the key to open the trunk?

On a number of occasions I have found my trunk open and can only think that the button is being pressed in my pocket.

Thanks in advance

Tony

I don´t know if you can disable it, but it seems unlikely to me for that to happen. You have to keep the buttom pressed for several seconds in order to open de trunk. I´d say there´s something else going on here... keep us posted!

Don't know if you can disable but the same thing has happened to me. In my case, I believe it happened when my pockets had other bulky things in them that pressed up against the button as I was working outside.

I think the same happened to me, my house key is on the same ring as my car key.

The trunk will open from about 150 yards but you have to be stood next to the car to close it, very annoying.
