Had my car running yesterday. Key was in the cup holder area. Went out to put stuffs into the trunk probably* accidentally pushed the close and lock. I got locked out. Used the app to open the door but it said I can't because the actual key is inside which is extremely stupid.

Good thing I was home so went and grabbed the spare key and was able to unlock with it. Then it kept on honking as if the engine was running and you walked away with the key, even when the primary key was still in the cup holder. I shut the car off, locked it with the primary key and restarted the car for it to stop.

Honestly, I've noticed a few stupid designs BMW made for the car. All my previous BMW knows exactly where the key is. The new 24 X5 can't. They removed keyless access for rear doors as well. OTA updates is borderline stupid. Not a single time my car've been updated that I have no issue. As of now, my remote start from the key and the app is completely nonoperational.
