Door on my 300cd stuck, Going Dukes for now.
Door wont open but luckily its the passenger side .Pulled on the outside handle with no feel for the latch handle making the rod to the latch known.The lock seems to be engaged but Ive released it from within.With out the door open I have little to no luck getting the door panel off without some damage taking place. Its a bit embarrassing such a small problem can be such a big burden.

You can't open it using the inside handle?
What happens when you move the key from lock to unlock? If my Coupe is any indication, the CD door mechanisms seem to be more prone to becoming sticky or jammed than the sedan/wagon versions. I doubt that you can get the door panel off with the door shut, without causing major damage. I suggest that you get a can of spray lubricant with a 'straw' extension and apply it inside the lock, then poke the straw down between the glass and the rubber scraper-strip and get as much lube into the mechanism as you can, both in the area of the latch/handle and the general vicinity of the inside locking tab. I suspect that the inside mechanism is half-locked (or unlocked). My CD was this way when it arrived from California. Quote:

On my 91 BMW, the electric lock actuator on a rear door got stuck. Couldnt unlock the door, so couldnt open it.
I managed to get the panel off in very close quarters without damage, moving slow and methodically. Hopefully it is the same on your cd.
