Error 2B61.....sigh

My manual E92 M3 now has 51k miles, and has always been treated with respect, especially the clutch.

But, as of this morning I am getting error code 2B61, which I understand to be a clutch slip warning.

I can detect no clutch slip (full throttle in 4th), and the clutch feels exactly as it always does.

Could this be a sensor problem?

Recent weather in the UK has been unusually hot, and this morning was the first time I have driven the car in over a week. So perhaps sensor failure?

On the other hand, it is only the second time I have driven it since I got the car back from the dealers, after their extended custody due to the aircon condenser problem.

Unfortunately, it seems to be the way these days:

- take it in with one problem,
- pay a lot of £ to have it fixed (warranty claim dispute is not yet resolved) and
- come out with 2 new problems.

This one, plus 279D, which is, I believe an air quality sensor issue.

Getting fed up now....
