Put the donut on, the culprit seems to be a very narrow slice about 3/4 of a inch long. I don't know how deep the slice is though.

I hope it can be patched. I only have about 10K miles on these tires and they have at least half the tread left. I'm also not in the mood to spend $500 bucks on two rear tires.
You must be mistaken. Per BMW's highly paid M engineers, no one gets flat tires anymore.
