Question Help Needed: Check Engine Light After Engine Power Reduction - Fuel Pump Issue? How t

Dear community members,

I'm seeking advice regarding an incident that occurred while driving on the highway a few days ago. Suddenly, my car went into limp mode and displayed the following error message (attached picture). However, upon restarting the car, the error disappeared, and no check engine light appeared. Notably, throughout this time, I never encountered any strange noises, rough idling, or other irregularities. The engine continues to operate smoothly like butter.

Unfortunately, today, after a few more days and approximately 100 miles, the check engine light came on without any noticeable changes in the car's behavior. Once again, no unusual sounds or abnormalities were observed, and the engine remains as smooth as ever. I have retrieved the error log, and here are the details (attached picture, translation provided):

At this point, I'm uncertain if my interpretation of the error log is accurate. Could the fuel pump be the culprit triggering the check engine light? If so, which fuel pump would that be? The high or low pressure one? And is it possible that only the fuel pump sensor is causing the issue? How can I narrow down these possibilities?

In an update, I wanted to mention that I did clear the error, and so far, after driving approximately 30 miles, the check engine light has not returned.

Furthermore, I seek guidance on whether it's safe to continue my daily commute, which involves covering approximately 40 miles. Should I prioritize immediate servicing, or can it wait for a few days or weeks without risking further damage to my car?

Car Information:

Make: BMW
Model: 325i
Year: 2010

Engine: N53b30
Mileage: 163,000 km / 101,000 miles
