Having some Electrical issues with my 11 e90

I've noticed when the temperature drops below freezing, the trunk wont open properly. It happens sporadically where I kinda have to play with the release button a few times to get it to unlock.. Also, it snowed pretty hard (around 8inches) a few weeks ago and I noticed one of the driver side tail lights were out.. I took it in to the dealer to get both of these examined but to my luck, everything worked fine. I felt like an idiot. The service rep offered to perform a full electrical diagnosis at a future visit.
I haven't had the time to go back due to the holidays. Just wondering if any other members had similar issues. Any feedback will be greatly appreciated!..

If your car is under warranty just take it to the dealership.
My trunk lid latch is acting up , sometimes it won't close properly and you need to slam it to engage the latch...so during my next service visit I'll point it out.

I had a problem where my DTC would shut off on cold starts or when I parked on uneven ground. I had the same issue as you, it was hard to recreate the error at the dealership. I had a video of the error and it was enough for the dealership to keep the car for a few days and try to recreate the problem themselves. My car was a CPO so they took it in and gave me an X1 to putz around in.

The problem hasn't returned yet.. The video seems like a good idea.. I still have warranty left so looks like I'll be visiting them shortly.. Thanks. And Happy New Year!!
