Just an update. My car has been at the dealership since Thursday and they have been going back and forth with BMW support and trying to get to the bottom of this. They have another round of tests to run tomorrow morning per BMW's suggestion. I have great confidence in the technicians at my dealership. If they can solve the issue, they will. I am guessing we will see a remap of the transmission software.
