Covered Under Warranty???

I see my next inspection is coming up every time I turn on the X5.
I have been noting little issues over time that I intend to bring to the technician's attention when I take it in for service.

Here are the few things I have noticed, and I'm not sure what is covered by the extended warranty. The car has 53k, and the warranty is up to 100k or this coming April.

1- Headlight condensation- usually after driving on the highway in the rain, the condensation stays inside the lense until the weather is dry

2-Driver's side door lock is sticky- When I use the remote on the key, sometimes the Driver's door lock only comes 1/2 way up, not enough to unlock the door, so I have to lock and unlock it.

3-Noisy AC/Heat blower- When the fan level is at about 70%, it makes an annoying buzzing sound as if it needs lubricated or there is something small stuck to the fan itself (imagine if you had a small piece of plastic wrap stuck to a fan blade as it spins... that's what it sounds like)

4-Fabric on A-pillars on either side of the windshield is slightly loose- When it is extremely cold out, I notice small waves in the interior fabric lining the front pillars. I'm guessing this may have happened when temperatures went from extremely warm, to extremely cold in a short period of time and the glue came unset.

5- Driver's window noise- When the window is going up, I sometimes here a click/pop sound... It definitely doesn't sound good, as if it may be close to coming off track, or it is getting caught up on something. I can keep it from making this sound by pressing firmly against the window from the inside as it is going up.. I"m guessing it is an alignment/track issue


So... Does anybody have any experience with warranty coverange for any of these issues?

Thanks
