It should be noted that this isn't my first time at the rodeo as far as stick goes. My e90 was stick and I never once had a problem with it.
You need to get your car to the dealer to look at the clutch. Maybe it's partially engaged and needs adjustment. I burned up a clutch on a 2010 Mini Clubman S at 20,000 miles and I've owned many BMW's with clutches. You don't want your car to be in the shop a week getting a new clutch. Best case might be a bad sensor.
