My turn to report. Freezing temps (16 F) in morning, my wife tried to open door.

The X5 driver door opens only from inside handle pull but not from outside handle. And the handle won’t fully retract, last few mm (unless manually pushed back).

I will buy OE carrier but will have someone put it in.
