If it is like other BMW models then the "P" LED will stay on until the car goes into sleep mode, which is 30 minutes (I think). As far as the fog inside the headlights are concerned I have had that happen on my M3, 528i, and X5 occasionally when it rains or I go through a car wash. It usually goes away pretty quickly. I think the headlights have some open vents that can sometimes let moisture get in.

It's normal to the "P" light being on for some time after switching off the car.
I have a 730d E65 it happens just like that.
Tuga.
