battery dead on 91 bmw m5-doors locked-key wont unlock door with battery dead-mechanics say you can lift handle and turn key to left 110 degrees & this will unlock door- but this has not worked for me-also the key seems to want to only turn 90 degrees and battery is under rear seat so i cant charge it to make key work, i dont want a locksmith to pry on the window to unlock the door. does anyone know the key trick for this dead bmw? i like german engineering, but i think they overthought this key/door lock deal.Help me. Thank You

Go to the passenger front door, insert key, lift the handle, turn the key and you are in the car!!
