I've read about tint causing issues with it, but I've literally never had the trunk or ignition work with it, so I sort of ruled the tint being the problem out because of that.
So what did you mean by the ignition not working properly ?

First thing I would do is check the trunk and sides for water ingress.
Then IF no water is found... I would order a new key fob from BMW for $400. I think your problem could be due to a bad key fob.

How about the valet switch inside the top of the glove box? IF its set to OFF... your trunk will not open.
