Sounds like excess bearing clearance, when the engine sits overnight the oil between the bearings and the crankshaft is able to run back into the oil pan. When you first start it up it takes a few seconds for the oil pump to fill the spaces back up and you get some clatter.
Very expensive. Try all of the above. If they all fail then last resort is a complete system reset. Disconnect battery for 8 hrs. Reconnect and start car. Do not lock doors or else leave a window open when you do this. Car will not unlock or allow you to open any hood liftgate etc without battery.
Sounds like it went into "limp mode" when your battery went low. BMW or any good specialty shop needs to reset your computer. (they don't reset themselves) most will do it for free. NOTE: if it does come back on, it's notifying you there is a pending issue that occurred coincidently.
If yours has the automatic load levelling system with air bags, you probably have a hole in one or both bags. I went through this and it isn't cheap. Good luch.
