Hi everyone!
I just picked up my new 328i, and I absolutely love it!
One thing I can't seem to figure out, though... How to shut it off! I know, I know, why would I ever want to? But seriously, it seems like every time I turn it off, it does something different.
Here's how I usually do it - come to a stop, press the "P" on the shifter, pull up the parking break, release the break pedal, then press the start/stop button.
At that point, sometimes everything shuts off inside the car like I expect, or sometimes everything but the radio shuts off, and I have to press the start/stop button one more time to get everything to shut off.
I've read the manual over and over again, and it seems very vague about this. It talks about Radio Ready mode, which is what I'm assuming it's entering when the radio stays on, but I'd rather that everything just shut off when I press the start/stop button the first time. Is there some sort of sequence of events I need to follow to do it correctly?
I'd like to figure out how to get everything turned off. If I need to press the start/stop button twice to do that, I'm fine with that. It's just that sometimes pressing once shuts everything off! So I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.
Otherwise, this car is outstanding!
Thanks for your help!
