In this video we see how it is possible, having time available, money to spend (not even a lot), and some electronic knowledge, to transform our key into a smart key with a display. We can find this key on AliExpress with code 1005004370028182 at a price of 13.16 euros, free delivery. The only warning: order it with English buttons. In addition to the display, it has functions such as comfort assist, but the emergency key functionality is lost (which can still be kept in the keychain). Of course, now we need to bring the electronic board of our key into the new shell, and we need to adapt it with some soldering, for power and trunk, put everything back into the new shell and verify that it works.

How do I unlock the automatic transmission of the BMW 3 Series?

In order to unlock the automatic transmission of the BMW 3 Series, the Start / Stop button and the lever release button must be pressed at the same time. This procedure will allow the car gearbox to be unlocked for about 15 minutes, so that in the event of an engine failure, the car can still be moved. It may be necessary to repeat the operation more than once for its success. After unlocking the gearbox, it can return to its original state by simply waiting for the aforementioned 15 minutes, or by pushing the release lever forward for a few seconds.
