Um, maybe I missed something here, but it sounds like it is working exactly how it is supposed to.

You can shift from Drive into Neutral without pressing the lock button on the shifter.

In order to shift from anything (park, neutral, reverse) into drive, it requires you to press the lock button on the shifter. I am also fairly sure that you need to press the brake as well (can you rev your engine in neutral at a stoplight and then shift into drive without drpressing the brake pedal? I have never been able to). The reason for this is so that you do not inadvertently shift it into drive and move forward when you are not planning to.

This is the same thing that my M6 had, and my 335i before, and the non-BMW cars I have driven.
