[QUOTE="absidian, post: 191880, member: 4356"] Hi Pijan71, just gonna throw some ideas about. I could be wrong, but these have been true with my cars in the past. - Some E46 are actually configured to only unlock the driver's door with manual key unlock. Mine does this too and is normal. - After manual unlock, try turning key to ignition-ON (but not start), leave for 10 seconds then switch off, maybe this will reset the CL and make the button work again instead of waiting while driving. - Re. the rest of the locking problem, sometimes in exteme heat the switches and sensors in the door expand so maybe this causes electrical problems. - CL button - maybe something has spilt onto the switch in the past? - Sometimes the boot wire harness gets frayed/worn from opening/closing, so it can cause electrical confusion in the system (thinks the boot is open).
