If the codes return, then the fault is real and needs addressing.

The ultrasonic sensor is probably a fault PDC sensor. Turn on the PDC and listen for clicking at each PDC sensor - no click is likely a dead sensor.

The trans code when wet could be the transmission mechatronic connector - they are known to cause trouble in wet weather. Disconnect it, clean the plug and the socket really well, dry them both out and use a little silicone grease on the connector seal when re-connecting it.

well the SRS light i already tried to clear it it just comes right back so i need to figure that out i was thinking maybe the main module for the airbags... ?

the ultrasonic i was thinking its that main module aswell because the PDC never worked since i got the x5 and i changed all the sensors front and back thinking it would work and it never did ..

and do you have a picture of this connector in the transmission or part number or is there a DIY video to look at that show me how to fix it?
