Push down in the door latch area and the door driver door will open. Hit it latch with lithium grease and it will start working again. Pro tip- don’t use the door handle to pull and close the door. Hold the storage area and pull instead. The handles are known to break. Also don’t use the glove box too much. They tend to sag

By the way my car is a 2015 f30 335i. My mods are bm3 stage 2+ multimap, bm3 flex fuel kit, dorch stage 2.5 hpfp, bm3 chargepipe, vrsf catless downpipe and vrsf race intercooler the biggest one and am always running e50. I don’t know your mods on your car but from my understanding, the car will react differently depending on how much power your car is actually making . Also there is another KZfaqr name stephansb58 look him up. I actually copied his settings except for the M throttle blips. I just change my xHP settings to this KZfaqr settings becuase he explained it better. When I get off work I will flash again the new settings and test them out. I’ll let you know.
