I agree, you might have coolant finding it's way into the combustion chamber and or mixing with the oill. Do yourself a favor and get a competent bmw mechanic to diagnose it. This way your not fixing something that is not broken. Oil burning more typically manifests itself with bluish grayish smoke.
Pop the oil filler check for chocolate milkshake, not on the cap but in the valve cover. Are you adding oil frequently? Are you adding coolant frequently? What color is the coolant in the over flow?
Definitely need a proper diagnosis by a trusted tech if the simple checks dont produce any results. GL!
