    I had a similar problem in my '91 525i try the following:

    From the drivers door:
    Turn key all the way to deadlock
    Turn key to unlock
    Turn key to lock, just to the point where the locking motors cut in, but are not deadlocked.
    Turn key to unlock.

    This would usually cause my passenger door lock to pop open...

    my driver door was double locked and stuck like that for a little bit, but what i was able to do


    open the window and start pulling on the pin slightly, then with your other hand use the key to try and unlock the door, while pulling up on the pin with more force and it should pop free

    worked first shot with me
