Are you shutting your M5 down correctly?

Proper shutdown procedure:
- Engage Gear 1 or R
- Engage Parking Brake
- Press Start/Stop Button Once

If you shut the car down in N, engage the brake, and walk away from the car, th ignition will remain on. If you attempt to lock your car it will honk loudly at you. However if you park your car in a garage overnight and don't lock it, then you would not know the ignition is on unless you pay attention to the cluster after shut down.

This can also be coded. Press start/stop once + lock doors and it shuts things down...I think. I've had the above issue w/ my 550. They replaced a bad sensor cable...problem persisted. I don't worry about it now as the starter has never hesitated.
