probably the drain tubes. I know on my friends 2001 his sunroof ended up leaking into the car because the drain tubes backed up. I assume you can get to them by pulling of the interior trim but because of the curtain airbags, I would take it to BMW.

Hopefully yours is CPO, if so and the warranty is still valid then yes...everything should be under warranty.

Also don't be surprised if they have to address the issue more then once. Water is very good at finding gaps.

there is a SIB on it, basically they install a one way valve that isn't affected by different air pressures...
