Actually called BMW service and they asked me if the auto start/stop button was in the "on" position...it was.

It's amazing what your mind will conjure up...

So no...I leave it off.

This happened to me when i first drove the car out of the dealership! I even called them and told them that i think they sold me a lemon. Lol. Worse part of the story is when i got home... i couldnt figure out how to put the car on Park. So I ended up calling dealer again. Most embarrasing day of my life...
