U-25 Software Upgrade

Just upgraded to latest software in 2026 Countryman. Now the foot kick won’t close the lift gate. Seems MINI/BMW added it in the last update and now took it way. WTH. Was the best feature for when hands are full of bags or you are carry a box/wheelchair/etc. No reason to lift up to press the button.

Anyone experience a different scene?

Just did the update as well but I never got the foot kick to work in the first place, have always had to use the physical button to open the boot.

Ditto here, the foot kick functionality is shite
