Hi all, I have had a look around for an answer to this but couldn’t find one. Apologies if answered previously.

My boot in my 2015 F23 218d coupe won’t open- it is making a clicking noise for a second but then nothing.
Looks like an issue with the lock but the big problem is I can’t take the back seats down to access the lock from the inside as the switches are in the boot!

Things I have tried:
Locating valet switch to open boot- I don’t have one
Checking if there is a key blade lock in the boot so I can open it manually- don’t have the lock
Pushing and pulling at the boot while pressing the unlock button on the boot- nothing happens.
The rear seats are the 60/40 ones I can’t get my hand between them to try to reach the rear seat switch in the boot.
Took the lower rear seat section out to see if I could access the boot- there are no gaps.

Can anybody suggest anything I can try? Really don’t want to go to a BMW garage
