Locking with the key works fine.
However use the key or remote to UNLOCK the car and the following happens. "unlock then lock, unlock then lock" Only way to get in car is to pull door handle while opening door. Need to fix as it might lock me in the car.
Did not see this one in the archives!
Did you try resyncing the key to the car?

Skip down to the post by Cheapcheap1. He tries this method on his '95 540i if you have a key fob

I assumed so because mine is. My bad. Have you taken the chip out of the key fob, placed it in the alarm slot under the rear seat and done the ignition to position 2 thing?
Thanks, OE locks. I checked the fuses. They looked fine. I have been told it could be the trunk lock, specifically the way it is locked via the key. It could be out of sync. I will experiment with how it is manually locked and see if there is any impact on my locking issue.
There is often a simple soulution to what seems to be a complex problem.
