He also said that BMW responded saying the DCT has a separate break in period which I've never heard about. They're going to reset the DCT and engine computer and get on it a bit to see what happens. If I get any new info I'll pass it along.
i'm still trying to find more info on here. Any upgraded tranny cooler kits out there? lol
Thats why i asked you how many miles !
Well 5000 miles shouldn't be clutches issue and i doubt that you heated up the oil that bad.I've seen guys beat on them on the track with no issues.
I'm sure it's just a glitch in the system and once they reset DCT adaptation and re-align the clutches,it will be fine.
