Do NOT get locked out of your X5!
I bet I'll never do that again! I locked my whole life in my 06' X5 yesterday. Don't even know how I really locked to doors, but ALL of my keys were in the car. The dealer told me to keep the spare "near" my driving key so that the programming would re-take. My wallet key was still packed nicely in the owners manual. I was about five minutes from breaking the window (cheaper than towing it to the dealer to make a new key), but I decided to try Pop-A-Lock. I heard they could possibly open a BMW. without damage. The guy tried for 30 minutes, cycled the locks twice, but could not get in. After he left, I walked to the drivers door and lifted the handle and . . . it opened! He must have done everything right but just gave up too soon. I called him, paid him the additional $25 plus the trip charge and now have keys in three different places. Whew!
