In a survey performed nearly a year ago across this forum and e34.de, supplemented by information collected in an older survey administered by my shop, it was determined that no E34 came with a passenger one touch up function from the factory. This survey reached a sample of every market and every model that I know of.
I've seen it on one car, a '94 M5 Touring owned by Rob Levinson (http://www.robertlevinson.com/M5_Touring/).
So, has it ever worked?
You either have an aftermarket upgrade, or I really want to know the part number on the car's general module.
