Mingstar88,

I too had a no-start scenario last Thursday night.

I drove home from work 15-20min. and turned the car off. Approximately 10min later I attempted to start my car and got a similar no-start condition you've described.

There was a message on the display but I forgot to make note of the error.

We took my wife's 9yr old Acura (because it always starts) that evening. When I returned home the BMW fired right up. Since I had attemtped to start the BMW several times earlier I figured I'd take it for a short drive to charge the battery.

When I pulled away I noticed my check engine light was on... (it is hidden behind the steering wheel rim).

Anyway, the next morning the car started fine and the check engine light was off.

One thing that might be an issue during extreme cold is leaving the fuel tank low. My car had below 1/4 tank and I did fill it up when I went out to charge the battery.
