  1. Thanks Breaker - are you able to share a link to a youtube vid? I don't mind drilling a hole. Just need to get this problem solved. Kind of comforted by the fact that others have had a similar experience and that its not just me. lol Bit of a pity but where needs must...
  2. An excellent question Eagle. Why DOESN'T the key work? It just doesn't.
  3. Hi everyone, I have a 2001 E38 728i. I had some electrical problems and it seems that my alternator is stuffed. However, after having had a flat battery for some time. I jump started the car via the terminals in the engine bay and got the old girl going. Even managed to get enough juice into the cars battery to be able to restart it eaily. Everything on the car is operating fine except I can't open the boot WHERE THE BATTERY IS. I can't open it mechanically with the key, I can't open via the switch in the cabin and and I can't open it via the remote on the key. Has anyone had similar problems? I really need to get this sorted and would like to solve the problem without having to go to an auto electrician. I reiterate, everything else is fine, including the central locking system. Aaaargh!
