stupid question, I'm sure... Is there an easy way to stop, "park" the M3, but NOT have it turn itself off?
I don't mean routinely, but every now and then on demand. I don't think that is HOLD mode, or Park no autolock, etc. Neutral is no good, certainly not on a hill
Routinely I like that I park the M3, get out, close the door, walk away and it self-locks and turns off.
However, every one in a while, I want to park/stop the M3, get out, maybe walk away briefly, then come back to it and get going again. I don't want it to shutdown in the meantime.
e.g. you want to mail a letter or drop something off at someone's doorstep. Get out, car is stopped, you go away for a few minutes then come back.
I suppose if I leave the door open, it won't shutdown, right? but that isn't always a good idea (raining, or strangers around).
Really want a stop feature, not always park/lock/off...
