Locked my Keys in the Trunk X5 E53 3.0I
Once i did the drilling procedure on my 540, but not sure if such would work on an X5. Here a new key would take between 3-4 weeks and a locksmith will bill me a fortune to try as they are not sure they'll be able to open it. I appreciate if someone can help me out with ideas in how to proceed. Thank You in advance, and excuses for my bad english. Rod.- |

Just in case the info you find is for the early build e53...take note that the rear liftgate may be different due to the introduction of the soft-close feature. See the information below...again just in case there's a difference in how the liftgate reacts to manual opening.
And here's some tips to those reading this thread..there are 3 things you should learn to do so that you NEVER EVER lock your (only) key inside the vehicle & have to deal with the inconvenience & frustrationthe OP is having to deal with:

could you send me instructions as well. my problem is similar in that i can't get into the car but i have the key on hand. my problem is that the remote stopped working few months back and i used manual to open and close. today however i came by and the key would just spin left and right freely. also read that this might be due to weather(hope it is) but i've tried de ice sprays and nothing. i'd like to get in it to fix it myself or at very worse drive it to the shop. thanks in advance.

Thanks QSilver and UCrewX5, The procedure didn't work on my car, for sure on earlier versions it does. However I managed to open it in a variation of the procedure. Got a guy to get the keys from the trunk with a cable ... a true artist!!!

TEMA did you change your control batteries as on this video? maybe if you get your remote working you manage to open your car.
