 HELP! Car won't start!!



I got up this morning and tried to start the car.(My 525i, Pre-Sept changes) Eveything works, windows, electrical, a/c, idrive.. however the engine won't turn over. I called BMW Assist, and they transfered me to a local dealership to help guide me through it.. and the service dept was closed today. After hanging up with me, I can't disconnect the Emergency call.. anyway I can do it? It is still connected on the idrive. This is so annoying.. my car won't start, I can't hang up the emergency call.
Oh and one more thing.. my keys will not unlock or lock the car. When I try to lock it with one key it unlocks right away, the other one (The one I last used will not work at all. The dealership said something about ignition disabled? Some safety feature..

Any input?

Sorry to hear about this. I know I would be one pissed off customer.
I am kinda scared now that I ordered my car and I hear alot of defects, maulfunctions regarding the 5 series. I know this may sound selfish of me but I really hope my car will be flawless for as long as my ownership of the vehicle as my trusty Toyota truck has been.

Good luck to you.

Kzang. I drive a Toyota 4runner. And i am also very worried about all the defects and problems everybody is having. But my toyota had one problem in 120,000 miles and that was a waterpump leak at 80,000. Sounds like the E60 is having software problems big time.

My car is permanently at the VPC it seems. 2 weeks today. It seems like i will never get this car. My dealer indicated one more week at the VPC. Its killing me to wait.
