Thanks for the tip (I know you weren't trying to be condescending) but I'm quite familiar with how CA is supposed to work.

I should have been clearer in my original post.

I just had this start happening! It's annoying and aggravating... My buddy works for BMW and said I have to bring it in... Said it could be the key battery starting to go(on a 6 month old car with 14k on it... Whoever told BMW is more reliable that an Audi lied!)

Don't feel bad though, this will be the 5th time I'm going to the dealer.
Looks like the key battery could be the culprit for me then as well if you're experiencing the same symptoms. At least that will be a relatively easy fix (or so you would think).

And 5th visit? Sorry to hear that man. This will only be #3 for me but I had 0 problems/dealer visits over 5 years with my previous E90s.
