I think you need to change your oil again. Make sure you use 7 quartz of BMW 5-30 oil (I think). There's a DIY thread.

The thing is the punk ass dealer is supposed to change it at 15K. Im supposed to maybe top it off when it says engine oil low. The one thing i was thinking is maybe theres too much oil in there? I heard the engine vibrates like crazy when too much oil added.

heres the thing tho guys....after adding some oil the message was gone but the car shakes violently and it doesnt idle. jumps up and down.
It's either an injector or the camshaft sensor. Take it to the dealer. You're under warranty.
