Don't buy it... I was told that and keep my foot off the brake etc... none of it worked. I took a video and gave it my SA with me pushing the stop button several times and it did not turn off. He is now forwarding my video to BMW Germany to seek their assistance. They replaced my button but it still does it.

Its a software issue that needs to be addressed. BMW really doesn't need the bad press... this is happening to a lot of us and only with the F15.
