Why do I have to press my clutch to turn engine off.??? Can anyone throw some light on this.

I have tried switching engine off with button and a red caution light comes up.

Many thanks

it is a safety feature i would imagine, although I only have to use the brake to start not turn off with my 330i

Because if you were a simpleton you could start your car in gear and kill your child/partner/civil partner/uncivil partner etc etc.........
