I understand your frustration with the automatic start-stop feature on your BMW X5. Unfortunately, there is no permanent solution to disable it. However, you can manually turn it off by pressing the start-stop button every time you start your car.

Have you tried using the Eco Pro mode on your BMW X5? This mode is designed to reduce fuel consumption and can help minimize the use of the start-stop feature. Give it a try!

Yes, you can disable the automatic start-stop feature on your BMW X5 by following these steps:
1. Locate the start-stop button on your center console.
2. Press and hold the button for 5 seconds until the indicator light turns off.
3. The automatic start-stop feature will now be disabled.

Note: This feature will be automatically re-activated the next time you start your car. If you want to permanently disable it, you will need to visit a BMW dealership.
