I hope you don't take this the wrong way but we will be very cautious of someone brand new to the site saying they need to open a D3 without the keys.
It may well be that you are genuine but we have little way to confirm it, sorry.06 D3 SE / 15 LR D90 XS SW / 88 LR 90 Td5 / 68 BMW 2000 ti
Any issues with the site let me know!

Hello guys
I would like to thank you guys for your prompt and sincere response.
I do understand your concern. As you can see, I'm only responding now since I posted my request on the 20th of November.
I'm running my own vehicle repair shop in the city of Pretoria (the capital city of South Africa) as a result I'm extremely busy with limited time to attend to my own belongings. Besides, my vehicle keys were stolen through a break in and I've been in contact with the area care takers for the perpetrators footage without success. The thugs took keys for nine cars including my property keys. I've been hoping for them to get caught and recovery of my belongings. My D3 is still standing where I've parked it in my yard.
I've have already contacted the dealership and I was adviced that I should break a rear door glass and tow the vehicle to them for fixing it. Please guys I sincerely beg for your advice. I've already managed to make keys for six cars and I'm left with three cars and the D3 is the most expensive. Please guys, help me, I'm desperate.[/b]

As Robbie says. As its a public forum that sort of advice cannot be offered. Your best bet is to get the car to the dealer or vice versa with proof of ownership.Sill protection - LED internal lights - LED reverse lights - boot liner - Dog Guard - Rock sliders

Okay guys, I don't have any option now but to approach the local dealer. I will definitely get back to you to let you know about the developments. Holidays are around the corner so I will have to dig deep into my pocket to make ends meet. Thank you ones again guys for your responses. Keep well.

the best that we can offer is that I suggest you get the local dealer to come out to you. Saves breaking a window to get in to tow it there.

Never break a window unless it is an emergency. A windscreen guy can pop out the rearmost side window with no drama and get it back in again.
Again, we wish you luck.
