On a 2023 if you don’t press the start/stop button prior to exiting the vehicle the headlights and other items will stay on. If you press the stop/start button prior to opening the door the lights stay on briefly, per the programming, and then turn off.

The car is garaged with Auto always engaged. Even in broad daylight the headlights will come on when I pull in. But they always turn off a few minutes later -- except for those two times. I can't be 100% sure I didn't inadvertently change the setting with my knee, however. |

We have the same problem with our 2021 X5 xDrive40i. The dealer suggested locking the car, which works, but we hate locking the car in our own garage. The dealer also suggested pressing the radio volume knob for 3 seconds after turning off the ignition. That seems to resolve the issue, too, but also a pain. Why can’t the damn lights just turn off like they’re supposed to! Would sure love to see one of these software updates resolve the issue.

You "could" try disconnecting the 12v battery for 20 or so minutes and see if that helps - just an idea. Some pull off the neg and pos leads and short them together to cause all stored energy in the car to drain. |

if so, that’s the issue. despite it being a safety feature (shutting off the engine when the door opens), doing so leaves the car in an idle state. It needs to go into a standby state. to accomplish this, you need to press the Stop button to turn off the engine first BEFORE opening the door to exit the car. let us know how this works out for you. |

Is this a model specific thing? My 2022 40i does not do this.

doesn't do what? when you open the door while the engine is running, the engine doesn't shut off?
it can depend on which drive mode you're in, ASS settings, maybe coding involved... but shutting the engine off when the door opens is the vehicle's default safety behavior likely to prevent roll-aways |

Correct, the engine does not shut off. Most commonly I do this when collecting the mail from the roadside mailbox. Sport individual setting is always on to defeat the ASS.

Not fully. I have a 2019 and have ASS enabled but mine rarely will shut off when I open the door. It will once and awhile but I have never been able to determine a pattern as to when.

But of course on my M340i it is very rare that it stays running. I have always leaned towards the difference being one is a midl hybrid and the other is not but since it doesn't bother me I never looked into it further.
