Hi,

i'm thinking about retrofitting comfort access on my 2015 jcw.
Since all F Series Minis have keyless start, im wondering about if i need a new key with keyless access function?

Does anyone know if it'll work with my keys?

Then retrofitting door handle and antennas would be enough ?

Need another BDC

Your key will be fine, since it already supports keyless start. You need handles and antennas for the exterior, and possibly the trunk. You might already have the trunk one.
I'm aware of 3 exterior antennas, one under each rocker panel, and one behind the rear bumper cover.
Then it's just a matter of adding 322 to your VO, and coding the car with esys.

Edit: Patrick is right, you need a BDC that supports CA. Either HIGH_CA, or MAX.

Oh okay, i thought this could happen.
Is there any chance, that my bdc does support CA from factory?
The car is very high equipped

if not, i have to "clone" my bdc to a used one (which supports CA) with autohex for example right?

The BDC usually has printing on it to indicate the level.
Cloning a BDC is very difficult. Even with the proper tools, difficulties are common.
It seems that ordering a new BDC from BMW is commonly the best option.
