"key not detected"

Asked by Z3pml Jan 04, 2019 at 12:16 PM about the 2019 BMW X5 xDrive40i AWD

Question type: General

Everyone once in a while, the Key not detected warning shows up on the panel  
and the key has not left it original position in the cupholder.  It does not
happen very often, and it is a false report, because the key works.  Has anyone
else seen this bug?

It happens with other makes of cars too, the most common solution is to clear the key chain of any interfering artifacts, and keep the cup holder clear of anything but the key.
