Bmw X3 Key
hi , advice much appreciated .
chandlers rustington BMW have not replied to my request ( not the first time they have ignored .. obviously only interested in selling , not aftercare or communication )
bmw X3 key fob didn't work on return to locked car .
opened door with " skeleton " key detached from within fob.. no problems opening door but alarm went off .
where do i insert the key once in the car ? there is no keyhole on the steering column or dashboard so how do i turn off alarm & start car .
i can find nothing in the manual nor online . the advice is to use the fob ( which isn't working ) !
fortunately the fob started to work again & normal functions turned off alarm & started car to get home .
hoping someone has had same problem & found solution .
thank you .

I'd have never noticed the key contact point in the car without this video! (It's from the USA but I assume that it's the same for UK models):
