How to Open Your Car Without Your Key Fob

If you need to access your BMW immediately and don't have a properly working key fob (e.g. a dead battery or a malfunctioning fob), there are a few methods you can try:

• Use the emergency key blade: Many BMW models include an emergency key blade hidden within the key fob. This can be used to manually unlock the driver's door.
• Contact roadside assistance: BMW's roadside assistance may be able to help you unlock your vehicle if you're unable to do so manually.
• Visit Lou Bachrodt BMW: Our service team can assist you in accessing your vehicle safely and efficiently.
