Cam chain filter is different to crankshaft filter AFAIK.
I'd do what Kris mentioned to start with.
If no luck, then I will start looking at what you have changed recently.

For crankshaft sensor, you do get error but you cannot read that via generic obd reader. BMW tools (inpa) or Autologic.

It may read the code, one your car stops and fails to restart and engine light is on.
