Interior cleaning advice

Hi,
I have a 730dL xDrive from 2016. Every time when I get a car wash and interior cleaning all settings are wrong. Does anyone know if there's a way to turn of the car completely?

I've tried all of the tricks myself. Even if the car is shut down (holding the radio button to shut it down) as soon as you touch an sort of physical button or touch surface, the car interior kicks on.

Which settings? The seat/mirrors...or your iDrive/radio settings etc?

If its the seat/mirror settings...then once you have those things set as you like them...save them to one of your seat memory settings. That way when you give your remote to someone else and they readjust the seats/mirrors so that they can safely move your vehicle around...those settings are saved to the remote being used. But if you’ve saved your seat/mirror settings to one of the memory buttons on the seat...you can press that button and the “perfect” settings you worked hard to hone in and save can be accessed. Once you start/stop/lock/unlock the vehicle...your remote profile will save those settings again.

Settings for climate, air, radio, etc. Everything with touch panels. The problem occurs when they wipe the panels and touch displays with a damp cloth.

It's the same across all the G chassis cars had the issue in the 740d and now the X3MC.
