Check out "part 13" in this list and you'll see that BMW calls it a "Grub Screw".

its also call the same on the brake side.. "part 18"

I guess that my point is that you cant speed shift it at low RPMs..

OK fair enough the parts list calls it a grub screw but that is usually a term BMW uses for the little cover screw on the bleed port on the clutch line. The BMW manual calls it an adjusting screw.

Shift linkage maintenance is always a good thing as the ball studs come loose they will snap off.

Just did the Shift linkage & balls. Just clean all them..when I was doing the O2 sensor in that area..
 
Had the same issue, took it in to the dealer and was able to talk with one of the Service Techs about the issue he made a simple suggestion change the gear box lube to a synthetic his reasoning was that the synthetic was quite a bit more slippery and doesn't break down like normal gear lube, I have no idea if his reasoning was correct but it did fix the issue haven't had a issue with shifting since.
