Did you notice this as well? Replacing the Exhaust Vanos Solenoid did the trick?
Wonder if this could've caused any stress on other components..

Since car "reboot", everything has been fine so i'm guessing the valve is asking for a replacement.
You don't even need to replace the solenoid, cleaning them out is sufficient so I would start with that since it's free and easy.
