Hello all! I have a little problem, and I hope one of the "experts" here can help. I just purchased a 2007 550i. The car was four days old, when I decided to take the family out of town.

To make a long story short, when we came out of the hotel to start our journey home, I found the car had been vandalized. Keyed down the entire passenger side, and also on the driver's rear quarter panel. In all of my years, I have never experienced an act like this, and believe me , it was a good thing I did not know who did this. The cops came out and asked if I pissed anybody off, and I just looked at him. There was not one incident that happened over the weekend, so I guess it was just plain meanness??

Anyway, I had to pull out the door handles, and for some reason, my body shop had shut all of the doors. Now, we have another problem--we cannot re-open the doors! I am able to roll down the windows, and even access the interior door handles, but still cannot release the door. I have disconnected the battery, tried to get the mechanism to open via picks and tools, but have not had any luck.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!

Thanks
