I hate this too, but I have read that recent v25 of iDrive fixes the the problem. Talk to your dealer.

I have an 08 535xi Sport (LCI) and I'm not seeing that problem. I have NAV and Logic 7 sound system as well. Is it possible there is a difference in behavior due to different options or something?

I assume he is speaking of the library menus. I find this annoying too. You pick a playlist or album. While listening it shows you the tracks in the list/album. You leave the car and return and it is now playing the same song, but shows the now playing menu. To get back to the list or album you have to go back to the root menu and start again.

lci = life cycle impulse, a mid-life refresh of the E60. Mine does this as well, returns to the begining of the song I was listening to.
