Mine are off permanently as I'm not a big fan of DRLs - I really question the safety value of them as well, but I know some folks just like the looks of them being on during the day. Other than having the dealer turn them off permanently, I'm not sure there's much you can do.

That is 2 things I'm probably going to have turned off at my first scheduled maint visit. The auto door locks not unlocking once you turn the car off is infuriating as well.

BMW auto door lock system will lock the doors after you drive a certain MPH...I think at least 10-13 mph, the doors will lock. However, the BMW auto door lock system WILL NOT unlock the doors. It was never designed that way.
 However, just to let you know, there is a square button next to the Hazard button on the center console....one push of the square button will unlock all the doors.  Quote:

 The car can unlock all the doors after a crash, how about after taking the key out of the ignition? I don't think that is too much to ask. With all the cool things German engineers can do, they certainly make some things irritatingly stupid. See original subject of the thread.

Yes, German logic is hard to decipher. However, your DRLs will always be on when the key is in position "2". The DRLs will go off when you turn on your headlights as you already know.
BMW did not design the DRLs to go off with the parking brakes. Sorry. However, enjoy your X5 for what it is which is a very capable SUV in terms of ride, handling, braking and acceleration! Quote:
