Check the eccentric shaft sensor connection under the beauty cover for oil.
Swap intake and exhaust solenoids after you clean. If code moves to other bank, replace solenoid.
Inspect solenoid connectors and wiring for damage.
I get this code every 6 months or so. I usually clear. Last time I took X5 out and gave it a good thrashing....several WOT runs with 1-2 and 2-3 shifts over 5K. CEL turned itself off.

Ive owned it for a while and havent had this issue but what makes me think you man be right about the trashing is Ive been running a bad radiator that overcools the engine (thermostat bypass through transmission oil cooler), combined with the cold whether here and a bit of coolant in the oil, some passages may not have gotten the proper oil flow. I changed the radiator last tuesday and the idle fluctuation may be less now. I will check the eccentric sensor, and I have swapped the solenoids already. Thsnks!
