Yes, they replaced the Fuel tank pressure / temperature sensor.

Here's an update. I ended up taking my car to the dealer, and that part is covered under an extended warranty as apparently they go bad often. So I was able to get it repaired for free.
And the cherry on top of the cake was they gave me a new 430i convertible as a loaner car. I'm glad the...
I was at the dealer the other day, picking up a new 12 V battery and one of the service advisors came over to talk to me. The guy wasn't very knowledgeable for being one of their top service advisors.
