hi has ne 1 got any ideas of how i can get in my boot without destroying it. one day i closed it and locked the doors with remote and that was it. i used the remote to unlock all doors n locks popped up then just went straight back down again after repeating for about 30 goes i decided to just grab a door handle as they popped up to get in. so im now in the car but boot has never opened since
any helpful ideas would be much appreciated
many thanks brett

if you have a rear arm rest (if you) can reach through and unlock it from the inside there is a swich then go to the out side press the lock in and hey presto

Did you find a solution to this?

I have the same issue on my cabriolet 320i. The central locking in the front works but the boot and fuel cap are stuck shut with no noise coming from them when the central locking is triggered
