Comfort Access Got Me

[Jime60]

I parked my '08/4.8 at the Tennis Matches in Indian Wells last Friday, turned off the engine, locked it (and checked the inside locking knob visually) and then went off to watch tennis for 4 hours. When I got back to my car the engine was running- but fortunately no sign of overheating or water loss- just about an 1/8 of a tank of gas gone. Didn't know you could lock an X5 with the engine going but have since tried it at home and it's very easy. I apparently pushed the Stop button and pushed it again to kill the accessopries with my foot still on the brake which started the engine up again only I did'nt hear it. (At least it's good to know it will idle for 4 hours at 80F with no problem.)
