When I slot the key fob (push button start model) in to the hole the steering seems to get stuck and makes a clunk clunk noise and I sometimes need to help it out of it's lock position - this does not happen all the time but sometimes it gets stuck. Has anyone else experienced this? Am i doing something wrong?
When this happens the idrive also displays a warning saying steering lock active

Yeah, this happens to me every now and then. I think it's just the steering lock not disengaging properly. It happened on my E36 325i sometimes aswell. Just a little wiggle of the wheel sorts it out, I don't think it's anything to be worried about.
