Doors won't lock/unlock

flyer333 · 06-18-2008, 06:06 PM

ok...

I was going to start up my car so I lock the door from inside.
Only the driver's side door was locked and the other three were still unlocked.
I tried to unlock the door and nothing happened.
I tried with the remote and nothing happened.

I have to crawl to the passager side to get out now since my driver's side door remain locked.

Taking it to the dealer tonight, anyone else had this problem?

I thought the lock will release once u pull the door handle twice inside??

flyer333 · 06-18-2008, 10:33 PM

CurlyFatAngry · 06-18-2008, 10:33 PM

WOW ... We're talking about a BMW, right? Not a Kia not Daewoo? ... I'm surprised

rcube · 06-19-2008, 02:29 AM

This is pretty common on the e90. I know two 330i that had this problem. It is covered under warranty, and easy fix.

flyer333 · 06-19-2008, 02:33 AM

damnit... i was hoping they would take longer.... i am having fun beating up the loaner!

I'm not angry, it's the fat and the curly hair that make me look like that

Greeney · 06-26-2008, 09:24 AM

I am now having this problem after the dealer got a hold of my car for a week, what does the fix entail?

shimajer · 06-26-2008, 09:32 AM

Yah, it happens to a lot of people. Take it back to the dealership?

flyer333 · 06-26-2008, 02:21 PM

they actully replaced a lot of stuff, like alot of sensors, and they told me they replaced 3 door locks.... it took me 2 days.... but its under warranty

DoctorX3 · 06-27-2008, 08:45 AM

Hi Everyone!
Well I had a similar problem... I have comfort access and all of a sudden I could not unlock my doors electronically AT ALL! I had to use the manual KEY can you believe it? It is in the shop right now and apparently it is fixed and I cant wait to find out what was wrong. no matter what I did in the car I could NOT unlock my passenger doors! It was SOOO weird! You could hear the doors lock but not unlock...Anyone else?

flyer333 · 06-27-2008, 05:08 PM

ur lucky u can actully use the manual key... i couldnt eve do that !!!!

it should be fine... the stealership will fix it for u under warranty

scooby9 · 06-29-2008, 07:25 PM

Damn this just happened to me and I'm on a road trip right now in the Rockies with my fiancee. This is absolutely unacceptable. My x-drive is hosed right now and that's scheduled to be fixed next Friday. I also called in to get my driver side mirror fixed. Now this as well. For the price that I paid, for this car, it's an absolute piece of shit.

flyer333 · 06-29-2008, 07:36 PM

shit'd seems like this is a common problem among e9x

I have to agree! I just wonder if I am having a bad experience because it was the first set of cars to be rolled of the assembly line... As it stands now I probably won't be buying another BMW...

me92 · 07-05-2008, 01:49 PM

it happened on my e46...... and that day was f..king snowing.. and i had to claw off the passenger side, i was so damn pissed,. they got me the door latch was broken. it was under warranty, and they gave me a e90 as courtesy. so, why not? lol

as for my e92, i have CA. sometimes its not sensitive too, try actually stuck in the key to the hole when u're driving, so it charges. maybe your fob is running low of batt. i tried. my problem was solved
