In the past I remember reading a post about "my e60 has mind of its own."
Well I am on same boat.
My 2004 525i A/C starts by itself without my command.
When I turn it off and in about 3-5 seconds, it turns on by itself again.
After about 5 times of repeated turning off, it doesn't happen again.....until the next day or the next time I turn on the engine.
I know my warranty on the car expired 2008 February.
Can this still be fixed under....uhmmm....powertrain warranty?

If your car is out of the original 4yr/50,000 mile warranty there is no additional "powertrain" warranty unless you purchased a powertrain only warranty to go into effect after the 4yr/50k factory warranty
If it is a BMW CPO car the warranty would take effect after the 4yr/50k and cover more than just powertrain
