I only noticed it over the holidays when I wasn't driving the car every day. I've only got 5 months left on my warranty too...

This was posted earlier but, this also sounds like mine:
Sounds EXACTLY like mine did. Check valves didn't sort mine - they were done months before the engine replacement incident.

Get something underway now with your dealer. Ask them to esculate it to BMW Germany and tell them you want an answer and an action plan.

Don't let it drag out...
