Door doesn't shut

newpaltz · 03-12-2012, 08:41 AM

I opened the driver side X3 door by manually inserting the key into the keyhole on the door. Then started the car. Tried to shut the door: it wouldn't shut. The latch in the lock on the side of the car door does not release. I opened the passenger doors and got into the same problem. I must have pressed something.... Please help.

It happens, thought I've never experienced it on more then one door at a time myself. I know up here, especially with our cold winters Ive had it happen few times with different cars over the years. Just need to flip the locking latch back open with a screwdriver, etc. Its like you said simply stuck closed.
I know this to be true when it occurs with one door, do not quote me when its on multiple doors however
