Why does the power stay on after I turn off the car
I press the engine stop button and my V1, which is connected to the cigarette lighter, stays on. On my E92 M3, it used to always turn off. Does it ever turn off?

I drive an F30 and I leave the radio on when I'm unloading the groceries etc. Once I lock it, the radio and everything shuts down. Hence I never specifically turn off the radio or any other system when I leave the car. It all will shut down when I lock it.

Dang. That used to work on my e92. I've been doing the push once to turn off engine and push a second time to turn the radio off in the m4. It's a shame that the holding it down for a longer period doesn't work on the m4.

I had a radar detector for a bit in my f80, plugged into the socket, the power never seemed to go out. I ended up having to power down and up the unit with it's own power switch, till I returned the unit. I don't think these plugs have an on/off function.

Interesting. The on/off button double tap should do it if it shuts down everything else, which the OP says it doesn't turn off the plug. Mine did stay on but I never sat there to see what happened after a couple of minutes. I guess the OP, if motivated, will just have to go back to the car after 10, 20, etc, minutes to see. Frankly, it is weird these cars don't just shut down fully when turned off on the initial button press.

If you push the start/stop button when the car is in "N"(neutral) the engine stops, but the ignition is still on. If you push the button when the car is in "D" or "R' the engine stops AND the ignition is switched off. The power outlets will go off after a couple of minutes both ways

Take your foot off the brake pedal and/or clutch...

I had mine coded so the electronics go off when I open the door. I don't lock the car in my garage so for me I prefer everything to go off once I open the door.
