Where is the lever for my boot as key will not work

latch jammed or broken put key in and push down on trunk while turning key and pull up if no luck can go thru rear seat or notify a repair shop

There might be a manual lever inside the vehicle to open the boot ??

Does using the key in the lock on the boot work? If so, there may be a problem with the release cable. Unlock with key and get the cable inspected or lubricated or adjusted till it works.

after facing east and getting the prayer mat out .if that doesnt work then on some of them i know they have a mechanical lever in or around the seat area

boot = trunk.
does not all BMW, have a lever that opens trunk from inside car?
and if you cant just tilt down the rear seat. then you cant.
takes tools. to remove it.
lost your spare factory key?
or stranded....???

find the lever. on some cars is near drivers seat other dash ,and others glove box lever.
I dont have BWM books.
but the glove box operators guide covers this, did you lose that too?

My dear unless you replace new key.because the key is to turn once,even if you lock with the key you can get it open with the lever.but now it has interlock it self because of the anti-clockwise turning.thank you

There is a cable lever on the left lower kick panel for the release. you may have to wiggle the hood to get it to release. good luck.

hi from uk as a getz owner(my wifes car) i do understand problem may i suggest this is most probably the lever on rear of the lockwhich is behind the cover on boothatch is probably loose hence when key is used the lever that connect to rod link and releases latch is slipping on key lock operation but when c/locking is used on drivers door it opens boot latck by motor no problem SO remove the panel from hatch held by screwsnear screen and pop plastic buttons on surround you will now have visual access to lock mech's and by using info provided above ? i am sure you can sort the problem if you use both key in lock operation and c/locking method to observe linkage it may be as suggested or a simple little ajustment of rod linkage hope this helps/inspires you ? best wishes from n/west uk lanc's

Open the boot with the key and ask someone to activate the lever while you have a look on the latch in the boot. You should see the cable moving if not, it might be broken or just disconnected.
Cheers.

there is a button that you can use to open the boot. it is situated on the drivers side not far from the bonnet opening lever.
