Have done no actual diag but the sun seems to be triggering a sensor somehow.

That’s very interesting…I did flip the X5 direction around so that the tail was facing East, but the alarm still went off right before noon that day (first time ever that the alarm went off any time other than the 8:20-8:30am timeframe).
Oddly for me, this problem only started recently in the past 2 months or so. I’ve had the car since last September and have parked the car in the same spot and same orientation and the alarm didn’t start triggering until recently.
But it does sound like we may be experiencing similar issues where light/temperature may come into play.
