Just discovered this last night. Say you park your X.turn it off, open the door, pull the key out.if you push the lock button on your key you will hear doors lock then when you get out the car and close the door, that door will lock as well and the alarm will set

the way I got around this was to put it in sport mode haha, just kiding. No if you read up on this topic there are lots of theorist who say this is just a temporary fix cause the computer will just adjust after a while again anyhow.

It will adjust in time, but I think I'm going to reset at least once a month from now on. I needed power last week and did NOT have it. The X did not respond. I reset it and sure enough, like getting a 75bhp boost.

So the concensus is that there is no beep, you just put the accelerator down to lowest position for 25 seconds and then it's done.

My did!It is a 2005 3.0i:nanana:

well my does..:confused:

Dead Battery = Locked out?- Not really!
 

I did not notice anyone mentioned this so, here it is!
In case of electrical malfunction you can still unlock your BMW.There is an emergency position past the normal stop.What you do is simply turn the key counter clockwise past the normal unlock position stop, witch will allow you to manually unlock your driver door.

Your X5 should also be equipped with a Brake Override feature. This functions when there is a throttle input, and a brake input simultaneously that are in conflict. This usually requires for the throttle input to be recognized first, and then a brake input occuring after and together (to prevent against activation during a hill start with brake on, for example). In cases of a throttle/brake conflict, the brake should take precedence and kill the throttle signal. If the brake is pressed hard and quickly enough, the brake assist function may also kick in and cause the pedal to descend rapidly, and the abs to kick in causing brake pedal pulsation.
