Warning light for external bulb not working came on - now is off

Had this happen over the weekend. My wife verified that the driver side reverse light was not working. The next day no warning and the light works.

I have an appointment on Thursday for them to look at this and my rattle in the passenger door.

Thanks,
Crowley

My current BMW does the same thing except I have no light on the inside to tell me that it is not working.

One of my xenons is intermittently going out, and I get the bulb out warning light.

On a side note/story, the 135i was supposed to be in the shop today, but they "forgot" I was supposed to be there first thing this morning, and didn't have a car for me, but offered to have me wait around until the local Enterprise rent-a-car opens, an hour later... which I not-so-kindly passed on.

Update .. a bulb was loose and that is what caused this issue .. also .. they couldn't find the rattle in the passenger door (figures ...) ..

Anyway ... I wasn't too impressed with the service .. never even got a call that my car was done and I think when they test drove for the rattle, they drove it pretty hard as my MPG was off a bit
