How do you guys turn off your M5 ?
When your M5 is parked, how do you turn it off ?
I always put in "N" and applied parking brake before turning off ignition. My friend tells me that I'm supposed to leave it in "D" or "R" with parking brake applied before turning it off. (DCT) Which is correct way for M5 ? |

Leave it in gear with foot on the break and hit the stop once to turn off the motor and the car automatically puts the car in park. Hit stop one more time to turn off all electronics.

We don't -
Well 2 stop/start button pushes with B&O speaker down and just get out of the car and it does take care of the rest for you and it really does. My radar detector always remains on for avoid a few minutes then switches off on its own too. |

I put it in Neutral, jump out, and it activates the auto-stop feature when it hits the wall.

Leave the car in D or R as you come to a stop and turn it off.

OP: i leave it in D or R, apply Parking Break and then turn ignition off. this way Parking break holds the car, not your gearbox, which is not good in long term if you park on non-flat surface dont worry about electronics, once you lock the car, everything shuts down |

Gear, parking brake, start/stop once. Mine is coded to shut down electronics when I open door.
Occasionally when I attempt to lock, it honks twice - I think this is when I leave it in neutral and shut off. Also acts differently when I have an active bluetooth call - wish it would automatically transfer back to the phone when I turn my car off.

I've found an interesting thing.
When I... 1. put M5 in "N" 2. apply parking break 3. press start/stop button to turn off the engine, "Auxiliary Ventilation" is always greyed out. However, when I... 1. put M5 in "D" or "R" 2. apply parking break 3. press start/stop button to turn off the engine, "Auxiliary Ventilation" is no longer greyed out. It's available to be enabled. And M5 no longer beeps (warning message) about car can move away with "N" engaged. |

#2. push the button a second time and everything immediately turns off. This is kinda standard for all newer BMW's... my 2011 550i, 2013 M5, 2014 M5, and 2014 X1 all operate the same.

That's how my 2011 550i is, too, but I always set the parking brake and leave the (manual) transmission in first gear. My M5 will be my first car ever without a clutch pedal, and the whole idea of "Park" is new to me.

If you press and hold the start/stop button, all the electronics shut down. No need to press twice, just hold it momentarily if that is what you intend to do.
