Is there someone tried Launch control? It didn't work

Today I tried launch control (i followed all steps in manual) but it didn't work
I saw some same situations from 2024,25 x5
Is there someone tried and had luck?
Or it's software issue for ID9?

Plz let me know

I haven't yet as I've been waiting to finish break-in. Should be able to give it a try sometime soon, however.

While I don't know about the M50, as with almost all of the DCT/ZF8 BMWs, you need to be in Sport+ (not suspension or steering, though).

Then, with full brake pedal pressure, you need to slam on the throttle to activate launch control. In my F80, if I press the gas too slowly or aren't giving 100% brake, the car won't enter the launch/flag mode.

When you go to put the gas pedal down you really have to snap it fast to the floor
