Father Smashes Windscreen of 520 !

[mobilefriend]

the guy still has the valet key he can still switch on the ignition and drive away. the moment the ignition is on and the engine is running he can unlock the door using central locking and also wind down windows.

Yo TBT, it is my understanding as well that the central locking will work it the car is started. Wow you have a complicated mind man ....

haha maybe i watch too much movie. well just trying my luck.

well i do know, if we lock our car with key 1&2 . and subsequently use key 4 to unlock and drive away the car, you will get the hazard light blinking from the outside of the car not sure about are there any tell tail sign inside.

cheers

By the way, it's an e60 rite?Thanks to this man, i have my wife reminding me to take an extra key along everytime...From the picture, impossible to crawl out...I think that guy thought his kids were suffocating and broke the windscreen to give them air while someone brought the key over...Funny guy,i definitely don't fancy locking my kids in the car

In any case... just wondering if anyone can help.

I can't seem to unlock my boot at all, with the car unlocked, the boot lid handle doesn't activate for it to open.

The kick panel remote boot switch also doesn't open it.

Only the key's boot release will open it - IF the key has been taken out of the ignition. - Is this a programming issue? Helluva inconvenient.

Can anyone help with the above?

Yo iceman, not don't want to help, but dunno :thinking: ...

Only wild guess is both your bootlid handle and kick panel switch share the same circuit and happen to be faulty? :thinking: long shot ...

The guy obviously never read forum, otherwise he could have avoided a front page story.

Depending on how the Modic setting has been coded for your batch of car, the central locking system is part of the double locking system of the car. on one version of the modic settings, you can disable the first level lock by pressing the central lock button. you will hear a disengaging click, but the door still stays locked. then pull on the handle to release the 2nd level lock.

this safety feature is to prevent ppl from opening your car door from a smashed window, or if you bash in through the boot with split-fold function.

best way to test which settings you are in is to try it out yourself. but of course i suppose certain versions cannot be opened at all.

Tried that bro.... does not work

 

[Radon39]

Yup....and when he left the keys there....he slammed the boot...and voila....a locked BMW...have locked my wife in once....but lucky I turned back fast enuf to realise she was not next to me

Good for Malaysia tho...the thief goes in...lock the bugger in...Set car on fire....claim insurance...Get new car...

Wah... that's indeed a good way to deal with a thief bro!
Roast the sucker alive! :twisted:

and MUST call the press to report.....then voila!!!

thieves would stay away from BMWs forever

it contains a chip inside, according to the doctor's report. where's the pic anyone has it?

LEt me fluoro it again...and post it here :wavey:

It's a programming issue bro..

Ok, let me try it with my other master key.

If car is no longer under warranty, dunno how much they will charge to re-program! :furious:

 

[Racebred]

probably $30
