Valvetronic Disabled to Frequent Verstellfehler

Hi all, I have a 2012 f30 335i. The car is fairly new to me and I've come from an Audi so I'm a little unfamiliar with some of these systems.

My car has had a drive train malfunction warning come up 3 times in about 5 days now. All of these times have been under moderate acceleration in comfort and sport mode. When it happens the car has no boost, sluggish performance and the exhaust is louder than normal and sounds flat. When the key is re cycled the warning goes away. I have one code that will not clear:

133e10
Valvetronic system: disabled to frequent Verstellfehler

I've been searching around the forums and I cant seem to find a real clear answer as to what this could be. Some people say it may need an update others say the valvetronic motor is shot. The car has a stock tune to my knowledge although I bought it used with 88k miles. Any insight is appreciated.
