How do you open the trunk if battery is dead on a BMW 328i?

If your BMW 328i has a conventional trunk (rather than a liftback), follow these steps to open it with a dead battery:

1. Locate the emergency trunk release lever.

- This is usually found in the glove compartment or driver's side footwell.

- There may be a plastic tab or button to press to get it open.

2. Pull the emergency trunk release lever.

- This should release the trunk latch and allow you to open the trunk.

3. If the emergency trunk release lever doesn't work, you may need to use a key.

- This key can be found in the driver's side door lock or in the glove compartment.

- To use the key, turn it 180 degrees clockwise and press it down.

- This should unlatch the trunk.

_Note:_ If you have a car that has a liftback, the process for opening the trunk will be different.

- Locate the emergency trunk release button or lever. It may be located in the passenger side footwell or the trunk itself.

- Pull the emergency trunk release button or lever.

- This should release the latch on the trunk.

- Pull on the trunk handle and lift the trunk up.
