This has happened to me several times....it is because your door was not closed completly. Even if your door is closed but not sealed it will happen. Your drivers door has to be fully closed to start the X5.

Note also if the car is started and you open then slightly close the door, it will not engage in gear. This freaked me out the first time it happened, as the car starts to move then pops back into Park...it wasnt till I discovered that the driver door was not fully closed that it started working again.
Interesting - shouldn't the idrive tell you the door is ajar, at the very least ?
