Default Open boot from fob?

Hello, I'm wondering if anyone has this feature (I'm in UK)?
i watched the original handover video on utube
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ENvk_M...ature=youtu.be
and it stated that if required you could ask your dealer to enable this.
I only have two buttons on my fob (x308 has 4?) and wondered if they had to give a special fob if you asked for the remote boot open, and could I just reprogram the x308 and it would work.

thanks,
Peter

The buttons are used in sequence. To unlock driver's door, press the unlock ONCE.
Press unlock again to unlock all 3 remaining doors and again to unlock boot lid.
Here are some TSBs for the North American market.

Didn’t work
In the UK when you press once it opens ALL doors.
Probably when you ask the dealer for the option he just set it to US mode!

The system can be configured to several sequences.
PDU, WDS and IDS can be used to set the way you want the buttons configured.
