Indy shop can't diagnose the issue.

1. 07' E90 w/101k miles. Some engine ticking, some leaked oil in the driveway, and an occasional "service light" pop up, but otherwise no other warnings or lights. (Indy found no codes or issues).

2. Months later, serpentine belt blows while driving. Shredded pieces & oil all over engine/bay.

3. Have car towed to indy. Belt replaced. Engine bay cleaned out.

4. Engine ticking/noise is worse. Indy swapped out a spare oil pump switch, and that didn't do anything. They've never seen anything like this, and are saying they don't want to run the car for fear it will damage the engine.

5. Help? Advice? Anyone with a similar experience?
I know this is a little late, but for future reference...

I've been taking all my BMWs to Jan (pronounced Yan) at Jan's Euro Motors in Huntington. Most honest mechanic I have ever dealt with, specializes in BMW and Benz. Wouldn't use for 'performance work' but he is awesome: http://www.janseuromotors.com/
