I believe that the 2.0lt pre face E90 don't have these issues, or at least they don't appear to the 05-07 models so often (N46 engines).
Mine (09' 320i) got yellow engine light after 10k KM, turned out 1 faulty coil (3rd cylinder). Since then no major issue, runs quite smoothly.
Now approaching 40k KM. I realized early it helps using best possible fuel,
also taking some rides in highway after a prolonged period of driving in town.
