    Ignition coils, spark plugs, and pcv valve breathers may need to be checked, as well as a tune up too. Thats what i was educated on with my BMW and I confirmed with a OBD Scan too. Once i addressed and replaced them, it went away and hasnt shown up again. 💯

    Had this problem today with my 2014 328i. I was driving like normal and all of a sudden, she jerked like crazy and the error showed up.but kept goin. I pulled over stopped the engine, turned it back on. Error was gone. I had a little less than quarter tank of gas. Just as I was getting to the gas station literally stalled in the middle of the intersection about 4 times. Barley made it to the gas pump. After filling her up she was fine. But the problem may be in the gas tank, there are these little floats that measure the gas in the tank. Sometimes one of them gets stuck and won't properly measure the amount of gasoline in the tank. I just ran out of gas. Fuel pump may need to be replaced. Or both fuel pump and gas tank all together. But like you said it could be a hundred other things. Hope this helped love. And I hope you can find what the problem is soon.❤

    Clearing them will clear however can't ignore the issue which goes back to the above components you have what's called an intermittent problem soon you will not be Abel to clear the codes until you fix those codes once it's done then yes after turn on car turn off car clear codes drive it for around 20 minutes you'll see that the errors will not re appear

      I have the same with my F32 435i man, i fixed all oil leaks, cleaned both the vanoses, changed oil (Castrol Full Synsetic W05-30) and still have the problem when i’m accelerate hard. I’m thinking maybe to change the oil pump but it’s expensive and i don’t know if that’s the problem is. Very annoying

      Basically whoever had the car before you did not take care of it, you shouldn't be looking for advice on youtube for smoking coming from your car. Should go straight to mechanic. I have same engine as you in my 2015 328i I'm at almost 80k and it runs fine. Are you putting 93 octane and changing oil every 5k miles ?

    Had this happen to me in my 2018 x5 xdrive35i. Had low oil pressure resulting in my engine seizing up from letting it warm up. When I returned to my car it was not running and would not start. $18,000 for a new engine.
