SOURCE: 1997 BMW 528i The passenger side front and rear doors won't
I had the same problem on the rear door of my 1998 528i and it was the door actuator that had gone bad. I had to take the rear seat out to get the door panel off. Once I had the door panel off it was not that difficult to replace the door actuator.

pop the door panel loose near the door lock actuator is at top of door;break the cover off of the door lock actuator.manually turn the actuator worm gear out of double lock with a screwdriver and pull the inside handle; not the easiest thing to do...good luck
SOURCE: driver seat and steering wont adjust on my 95 740il
here's what you have to do:
#1. make sure the fuse to the seat adjustment is not blown, its usually a 10 or 15amp fuse.
#2. unscrew the cover to the controls on the driver's seat and make sure the harness is not loose or
broken, if the harness fails to attach to the control board correctly the steering wheel and the
seat adjustment will not work, this harness tends to come loose and even brake over time due to
the constant movement when you get in and out of your car.
I hope this solves your problem.
