I had the same problem on my X5, and also on the 330.. It sounds like a problem with the coils arching. On the X5, I was coming out of a toll booth and the light came on.. Then the car started shaking. It was losing power, and then losing speed slowly. Ironically, I was on the way to the dealer anyway. It died just as I turned into the parking lot there. On the 330, it just happened when I started the car one morning. If it is that, it's an easy fix. Good Luck!
