07 221 Keyless-Go/Express open
I have not had my 221 for long (about a month) but it’s been at the dealer for at least 14 days of that having all kinds of issues resolved. I've never seen a car with so many little problems and especially a Mercedes. Fortunately, so far it has all been covered under warranty but at 50100 miles, it’s all over. The exception being that they just "fixed" my Keyless-Go and central locking/express open/close and that’s the question I have for you guys now...
If I understand it properly, when I press and hold the unlock button on the remote key, the rear shades, all 4 windows and sunroof should go down. Then if I then press and hold the lock button on the remote key, then all 4 windows and sunroof should close and the rear side window shades should go up? What about the rear window shade, should that go up too?
Secondly, if I press and hold the button on the outside door handle should it not do the exact same thing as above? Lower or close all windows and sunroof? Should it do the same from each and every door?
At the moment, I am getting different functions using different methods. If someone has a definitive answer, I would appreciate it. Thanks guys.

Holding lock on the door handle closes the windows. Holding it again closes all the shades. When holding unlock from the remote via infared, the first shot opens all the shades, hitting the button again opens the windows and sunroof. I just tried it on my dad's S this morning.

You can close all the windows from all the doors with keyless go, but can only open them from the driver's door via the infrared remote (not keyless go).

You actually can open the windows using Keyless Go. Press and hold the lock button on the door handle for a few seconds and then pull the door handle as if you were opening the door. All the windows should open.
One quick pull on the handle will lower the windows about half way. Pull and hold to lower all the way.

It was a total accident though. I was pressing and holding the button to close all the windows and once they finished closing, I pulled on the handle right after and the windows re-opened again.
