Check the turbo oil lines, they can leak onto the exhaust and cause your issue.

Hi, are you familiar with the code P1290? I am seeing potentially wastegate actuator or cylinder head temp sensor. I am struggling to find videos on the E84.

If you have an electronic wastegate check if for smooth movement.

The problem is it depends on which device they are using for the tests, I met this new place and he had the latest device for testing and it pointed out directly onto the crankshaft sensor which made sense cause I was also seeing some black smoke from the exhaust. The problem is many of these garages have different devices and most of them don’t really know how to use them. I replaced the vanos, MAF sensor, spark plugs, coils new air filters and the turbo intake which was blown off at boost and the same error kept coming. I would ask around for a good bmw garage and have one guy give you accurate data rather then spending on stuff that could’ve lasted a little longer

Sounds like you have a leak somewhere, no way you can burn that much oil without seeing the blue smoke out of the exhaust

Thanks for your swift reply. I have checked for outer leak myself & at the dealership, and there is no leak at all. Additionally, I have changed the timing chain guides at the dealership as a preventive maintenance & Seconly to make sure that the there is nothing wrong with the timing. I have checked the oil level once I had the warning massage of low oil level by draining the oil in a levelled container & came out to be true missing one litre, by this I removed my suspicion of Oil level sensor malfunction. I asked one of my friends to drive the car & I tailed him to check of any smoke coming from the tail pipe, some little smoke was coming out once the driver push the paddle to the floor. There is no error codes. Do you think I need to check the vacuum pump & the PCV as a cause for the high oil consumption, or else, Kindly seeking your advice

A bit late but I had a similar situation that I was chasing for months that progressively worsened over time. Check the charge pipe and intake assembly first before anything else. Use soapy water to identify any potential air bubbles, my boost leak was at the turbo inlet pipe. The entire inlet portion had crumbled and disintegrated. If it isn't that then go down the list. MAF, spark plugs, coils, fuel system (LPFP, HPFP, or clogged injector), cam shaft position (happened this week), VANOS, crank position sensor, or timing chain. In my experience, idle issues on BMWs have generally been an air related issue and less commonly fuel.
