hi my x5 driver door wont open from the outside when u pull the door handle, u have to go inside the car from passenger side and open the driver side from there. what do u think is the problem? do i have to replace the entire door lock assembly? if so, what do u think is the estimated cost including labor thanks?

There is a great exploded veiw of inside the door of your car at Realoem.com I would guess the part you need to be the door carrier, part number 51-21-8-243-615 It is fairly easy to install, for me anyway, for you it might not, I dont know your level of commitment. If you want to take it on, let me know, I'll talk you through it.
