Bought X3 G01 20d XLine 3 weeks ago (28 July 2021), car registered sept 2018, have experienced the same intermittent starting problem, occurred about 10 times in the 3 weeks I've owned it. The fix for me was to press Park and retry, which worked at first or second attempt. However, a day ago the starter motor clicked 3 times (like when the battery is dead) and then the engine got turned over normally and started.
Took 2 weeks to get it booked in to BMW York, went in this morning (20 August 2021), gave them all dates/times it occurred, they've checked fault codes and ordering a new starter motor. I wonder if this is a common issue? Maybe they've improved the design, certainly hope so. Failure after only 11,000 miles seems to indicate a potential design/manufacturing issue.
