What car do you drive? No X listed....

LOL yes, there is, the end of the line under my pic. '08 X5 4.8i :D

Just realized, OP has 2013 X so probably has convenience feature that detects the presence of the key where mine does not.

So does my 2009 X5 35d wo/ convenience package. If the key is not in, the radio is off.

Funf Dreisig

I’m assuming based on context that the OP has comfort access, as does my X5. Key never leaves your pocket, but when you park and hit the start/stop button the engine stops and the car stays in “accessory” position. A second tap turns everything off, which is effectively the same as removing the key. Or you just hit it once to stop engine, get out, and either lock it or it times out and turns off the accessories.

Thanks again all for this clarification. It may be in the manual (which I read) but your advice was helpful.:thumbup:
