E90 318i shaking/vibrating on idle and while driving

Hello, i have a problem with my E90 318i, N43 engine, 105 kw, manual, and car has 124 thousand kilometers or 77 thousand miles. Car is well and regular maintained

Today, i was driving and i was in second gear on low rpm and i press gas pedal and car showed symptoms like i had with bad coil or plug (vibration and lost of power under 3000 rpm) , i continue to drive and check it few times by pressing gas pedal on lower rpms (not to low), and i sense a lost of power and vibration while driving and accelerating, and check engine light came on, i stopped at the traffic light and car was vibrating very intense at idle, it was very close to my home, then i started to drive under vibrations towards my home and all of suddenly check engine light went off and car went smooth without vibrations to my home. i turned it off, open the hood, and everything seemed fine, no smells or leaks. i turned on car again, and there was no light or vibrations or shaking

car is well maintained and i changed all plugs and one coil 5 thousand kilometers ago.

any suggestions or similar experiences?

We wont be able to help unless we know what the trouble codes are.
Get yourself a BMW spec ODB code reader or bring it to an auto parts store that can scan it for you.

Today i went to official BMW diagnosis, and car was running normal, we connected car to BMW OBD and i had two codes

1. Cylinder 2 Misfire

2. Misfire Due to low gas level

I top up my gas tank to full and after that car was running also normal like on low gas level, after 15 minutes vibrations and shaking came again like yesterday and check engine turned on. I turned off the car and start it again, and check light went off and car was running normal again?

wtf? maybe another coil?
