I have the same problem. I also understand why it's set that way. But is there a way to change the coding?

Do not turn on to accessory mode. On my e90 i would Just open the door and press in the volume knob and it would power on and stay on until I lock the car

I watched a watched a 3hr movie from the iDrive when I was waiting for sister in law. It surprisingly held up well, the low battery hasn't been triggered yet

weird, I think I've tried that but the radio shut off anyway. Does the key fob need to be inside the car?

After you pushed the volume button 3 times in an interval, the radio and stuffs in the iDrive won't come on, unless you press the accessory button once, then it would reset the interval.
