Has anyone had a recent CEL resulting in active shutter replacement?

- Are the parts readily available nowadays?
- Does anyone have intermittent CEL related to the active shutter failure?

My wife's 2018 G01 X3 30i is experiencing intermittent CEL and I think it's the shutters. Last night when the vehicle was stone cold in the garage, the shutters were open. I took a test drive last night, the CEL was on the shutters didn't change position (remained open).

Today the vehicle was stone cold, and the shutters were closed. We went out to dinner, CEL was on. On the second hot start, the CEL turned off. Now, the car is very warm/hot in the garage, and the shutters are closed. The CEL is off.

Will the dealer push back on our requesting the shutters to be replaced? Does an intermittent CEL store a code that the dealer can read, even without an active CEL?

Thanks.
