I unplug every usb from the car before turning off. Any idea what's causing my issue?

*Also, I've been having a burned plastic smell coming from the vents when iddle. Not sure if related.

thanks!

Comfort Access option? The X5M comfort access pretty commonly has door handles that are dead and drain power. Check to see if they're all working or not.


As stated above - Plastics above the firewall melt onto the heat shield right above the downpipes/cats. Pretty common nastiness in smell and smoke.
