The latter is a common E34 problem. One of your lock solenoids is broken or sticking. Make sure the fuel filler flap's lock is engaging properly.

Where are the solenoids located? I have a problem where the doors lock but when I double lock (with alarm) the alarm goes off within 10 seconds. So essentially there is no alarm. The blinking light on the dash indicates the hatchback sensor was activated.
