Well, I see three potential problems.
1. Batteries are dead (perhaps from sitting?)
2. It is the wrong remote fob (really easy to have happen?)
3. There are vehicle parts (the remote module) that either don't exist
(anymore) or are broken.
Any way to check why the old owner's fob was missing?

I have never had a remote with this car but the owner before me did. I
call the dealer and ordered a remote from them so i thought they would
know what remote to get. I dont know how to tell if the battries are
good tho

Did you check:
1. Are the batteries good in the fob?
2. Is it the *right* fob for that vehicle?
Q: did it work ever with this fob in your vehicle?

I translate this as being an attempt to recode a keyfob.
Short of actually reading the manual, anyone out there remember how to do this
on that model 6er?
