Door problems

Hey I'm new here. Having trouble with my e63's door handle. Do you think it's worth it to go to the dealer?

You talking keyless entry?

I had both fronts replaced at the dealer and it was not cheap. IIRC about $250/handle

The rear driver door handle won't open automatically as If like a child lock is stopping it from opening. But it's only from the outside, and it opens on the second pull.

I'm having trouble with my ability to express details about an issue. Do you think it's worth it to go to the doctor?
