We'll see if that really fixes the problem...just wondering how long the auto tranny will last.

I know it has nothing to do with the engine oil. Just threw that in there because with high oil temps, the engine will probably not last as long as a naturally aspirated car, but with the high torque that twin-turbo is outputing, the auto tranny probably won't last either. The thread was 335i with auto tranny with overheating problem....I know it was about whether there was a secondary oil cooler or not, etc., etc.

Time for you to start on a mood stabilizer!

Besides, you are the one who threw in that BMW forgot to "throw in a working SMG tranny for your M5!" My colleague's E60 M5 is still work fine with no problems with the car whatsoever. So I guess he's the lucky one. He has over 5K miles on it already and it is his daily driver.

Besides, you'll be in another car in one year anyhow!
