I had a similar issue with my 1 Series and it turned out to be a problem with the clutch. I recommend taking it to a certified BMW mechanic to get it checked out.

It could be an issue with the transmission or gear synchronizers. It's best to get it looked at by a professional to avoid any potential damage.

Have you checked the transmission fluid levels? Low fluid levels can cause grinding noises when shifting. If it's low, make sure to top it off with the recommended fluid for your BMW 1 Series.
