    Still having problems getting the passenger doors to unlock.

    04' 325xi, 110k

    So my door lock button on the center console works indiscriminately. It will work 4-7 times and then stop working. To get it to work again, I have to push it really hard, or hold it down, or hit it fast a bunch of times... and then it will start working again. And once again, after about 4-7 times, it stops working. I can still get in an out by using the handles.

    Weird thing is, I have the same problem with my key fob. It will work a handful of times and then not work.

    I found some voodoo trick on YouTube that will reset the key, but then it stops working again too.

    If anybody has any input, I'd really appreciate it. I've got two girls still in carseats in the back. Worries me to have the doors sometimes unlock and sometimes not.
    Thanks
