Default Weird Electrical issues

So earlier this week out of nowhere my gas door would not open. Next day, it worked fine. Then today when I went to my car at lunch my seat was all the way forward. I have seat memory #2 programmed for this when I vacuum the car out, but I know I did not touch the button to move it there. Then on my way home my drivers window would not roll up or down with one push. I would have to hold the switch to roll it down and then back up again. I didn't think anything of the first couple issues, but with these all happening around the same time I'm starting to get a little worried. Any ideas?

1. I've never seen that happen, so I can't really comment. Has it happened ever since?
2. That usually will happen if your key is set to correspond to memory #2. Otherwise it's a bit weird it would happen. Has it happened again since then?
3. That usually happens when you one touch to close and pinch protection gets activated (at least that's the only way I've been able to get it to activate) unless your buttons are somehow bad. Is that issue still there?

Hopefully none of the issues indicate any impeding issues.

How old is your battery? When the power in the battery starts to drop all sorts of funky things start to happen.

I have seen this happen as well.

So none of these issues have appeared more than once. Also, any obvious culprits (using different key to make seat move, pinch protection in window, etc.) were not the cause either. The battery is possible. It is not old, maybe 18 mos. but I don't think I coded it to the car correctly. I think VCDS asked for a number which I didn't have when I went to code it.

Starting to sound like water in the floorboards under the seats. Like when the Sunroof leaks. It will go bat-**** crazy like that.
