It’s not my day.
Few days ago my door Handel stopped working, its just work from inside the car so with the tips of some friends I removed the door panel and disconnect the airbag and start checking I found my door handle mechanism only need to be changed nothing else. It was late so I left it for next day also I can get the part from BMWSEVICECENTER. But what happen the next morning when I went to open the car I found my battery was flat no life not even to open the central lock with my remote key so I used my key, and nothing happen the only thing I can see is my door lock is opening but I cant use my f*** handle . my tears nearly came out and I don’t want my nosey neighbor to see me stuck . I need your help guys what can I do?

I had to smile when reading this, a man has got to keep his dignity. Yea, watch out for the nosey neighbour!

Two options: First recharge the battery, then depress the open button on the key and keep depressed until all your windows open, then you can access the inner handle. OK, so if you do not have the climate comfort option, have the dealer code your key quickly.

Second option, is access through the trunk, where one would remove the strip housing the plate lights, and then accessing a release mechanism through a tiny hole, this will allow the trunk to open, but your alarm will be activated, so switch off with key (if your battery is recharged by now)

Cheers & GOOD LUCK & keep your dignity!!

he can`t get in the car to charge the battery.
so the second options is the way he should go!
