Are you the original owner? I had a BMW rearended one time and this became a regular problem. Also could be a plug with garabage stuck in it.

Door vapor barrier is a common culprit

Sunroof seal is another trouble spot. BMW'S tend to be garage Queens on the norm, but if you constantly park outside and you live in a very sunny state like Texas or Florida (examples) very possible to dry rotten seal or have clogged Sunroof drains.
