You say that the wheel position used to change with your key, but doesn't any more. That can point to programming. Do you have another key? If so, is the steering wheel behavior any different for that one? To confirm key battery charge, you should be able to unlock your X5 with your remote from more than a few feet away. Key battery is a separate issue and there are lots of threads on that.

Before you go to any more trouble, try reprogramming your key(s). The alternate procedure here has worked for many of us. After doing that, program your preferred seat and wheel position settings with memory 1 and see if those settings are retained next time you use that key. You can manually move them out of position and see if using your key puts them back into place. If not, press memory 1... then let us know if only the seat memory setting is retained, or both seat and steering wheel, or neither.
