I believe this is actually an old problem.

The first batch of E60 M5s delivered in Europe had this oil problem.

Not good for BMW ...
No, the initial problem was with the main engine oilpump. The shaft in the pump broke down after a while.
Bad manufacturing process of the oilpump shaft ( coating ).
