Weird problem with my car (n55)

So I wake up Sunday morning, get dressed for work and walk over to my car. Try to turn it on and nothing. Car won't turn. Weird thing is I got 0 error codes. Plugged in my laptop. No codes. The car would keep trying to start unless I took my foot off the pedal..

Tried again at night, reset everything on my procede etc, still wouldn't turn.

Fast forward to right now. I went out side, unlocked the car and I noticed something. The pump wasn't priming. Anyone with a n55 knows that when you unlock your car it starts priming itself( you can hear it). So I reset everything again on the command center, plug in the laptop and try to turn it on again. Still nothing and no codes. So I tried the old pump the throttle method and for some reason it worked... I tried turning it on and kept my left foot on the brake, right foot pumping the gas, low and behold the bitch turned on. Went for a drive, zero codes, no limp, no hiccups..

Any other n55 owners go through this before??
