Top of the menu, choose "Random".
So long as you remain on that list (album, all-by-artist, Playlist, etc.) the Random function will continue the next time you start the car. The moment you switch to another Playlist or Album, turns Random off.
As I said, beyond this example, practically every screen in iDrive that you wind up on has additional functionality once you hit the "Option" button on the iDrive controller. It's how you enable split screen when Navigating, how to change the view in Maps, and on and on.
