I am dealing with this issue for about 4 months now. Already replaced the transmission fluid and re-program it. But the overheat code is still there. Looks like only way to solve it would have be replacing a new transmission... cant believe there is no way to fix it. My car right now has 83950miles. DCT is just not that reliable overall.

I had this issue for about 8 months. I bought a second hand box because everyone said that's what it needed but I'm the sort of guy that would rather find the exact part that needed changing instead of changing the whole gearbox.
One of the things I tried was the gts software. Since doing that it seemed to change the problem. The box wanted to change down to second gear at 45mph. My mate plugged his computer into the car and noticed the left rear wheel speed sensor wasn't picking up direction till 45 mph and it read it as going backward. Bare in mind I have had each wheel speed sensor go and had changed all 4 I didn't expect to have a problem. This didn't throw up any codes or any dash warnings. I changed the sensor AGAIN and the box has been fine since. I had another guy message me about having the same problem and the WSS turned out to be the problem. So. Plug a computer in and see what your wheel speed sensor are saying. Hope this helps |

What sort of temperatures is the DCT seeing? Are these false positives? Has anyone tried to use an extra sensor to validate the regular one?
Any other data channels on the CANBUS alluding to problems, such as a clutch that's not engaging properly and dragging?

Temps were fine. I think about 80. It's not the box. It's the car thinking it's spinning and needing to change down but the parameters that are set in the ecu don't like it, it just goes into a 'wtf mode. Do a live data on wheel speed for direction and speed

You tell me. The car thinks it's spinning out of control and trying to do something about it. The "TEMP CODE" might be the only thing it can say. Seriously if you have this problem, check a live data reading of the wheel speed sensors. It's this bullshit that has made me put the car up for sale. So many computers thinking they know what to do, except they dont

As a side note. I mate has a high power m5 and said the second the clutch slips (before he updated them) the car says trans OVERHEAT. So as the car is thinking something isn't in it's normal parameter, it will try and save it's self.

The speed sensor theory is very interesting, and might explain some other strange behaviour as well. For a sad bloke with nothing than the Carly app, how would one measure the sensors actual speed and direction? Thanks Last edited by Helmsman; 09-26-2019 at 04:46 AM.. |

Search the part no. on google. Look for the cutaway drawing on realoem.
They have to take apart the front of the DCT. Most BMW dealers wont do that. Also replace the oil pump behind the wet clutch while inside. There is an o-ring where the harness enters the housing. Big source of leaks, so replace it. New o-ring is much thicker. New DCT is $12k. Labor is $3k. Total $15k. That is why a $2k-5k used DCT is the best option. Check with Deansbimmer Mporium in Texas.

I have an M2 that never gets above 87C gearbox temp, but throws these red and black clutch / gearbox temp codes. While I am still trying to find the origin of the issue, IF you monitor gearbox temps and don't see them rise too much, and all else fails…
Disable the codes? I’ll admit thats what I’m trying right now. If it suppresses limp mode, then eff it for now…at least I can enjoy the car. I haven’t driven long enough to make sure they don’t still pop up. |

I was able to use my hand held OBD2 reader to actually see what the computer saw and it saw 3 wheels rotating and didn't know about the 4th because of the sensor. Sensor fixed it up, for everyone that has spent thousands on this issue replacing stuff when it was only a sensor, I am truly truly sorry. |
