Good news! I guess it must have been the battery being low. No issues going out for a bite to each for lunch. No error message, and smooth shifting into R and going through all the gears just fine, and I was able to manually select gears in sports mode.
I had no idea this transmission is so sensitive to voltage. The engine cranked over this morning with no signs that the battery was low.

Check out post #1 of transmission related symptoms. Sounds like it might be a torque convertor issue.

It has been impossible for me to determine if all the transmission problems posted happen to all the transmissions or if some are more problematic than others. Further, I can't decipher what transmissions are prone to which particular problems.
One of the reasons I am interested, while I am not having any transmission problems, I am over 100,000mi on the original transmission. When I have transmission problems I would like to be able to consider any other compatible transmissions that would be more reliable and able to handle more torque than my original transmission. Thus far, my take is I would have to pay big bucks for an aftermarket improvement.

It appears to me the people with the most problems are those who number one: perform frequent fluid changes (possibly with the wrong fluid); number two: reprogram or modify their transmissions, and number three: misinterpret worn driveshaft splines or low vehicle voltage as a transmission problem. I think the units are quite reliable under normal driving conditions. However, due to the higher performance characteristics of the X5 itself, many of us take on a more "spirited" driving attitude, thus advancing the normal wear cycle of the driveline. I have 242,000 miles on my 3.0 with a build date of October 2002. The fluid has never been changed and I have done at least 15,000 miles of towing a 1300 pound PWC & trailer in Texas heat with no problems at all.
In past lives with GM turbo 350s, 400s, 200Rs, a fluid and filter change every 30,000 miles was the norm. But with newer synthetic fluids and the precision of electronic controls, the internal wear factors have been sharply reduced. |

There's no such thing as a lubricant with infinite life (even syns) and I'm suspect of BMWs motivition in making such a claim at the EXACT time they began no charge sched maint. Even the maint sched provided with my X stated 100k fluid swaps, when I pointed it out to the Senior SA at a Florida BMW dealer it was dismissed a printing error. In the same breath he informed me that BMW translates trans lifetime as 100k miles.

I don't think it is practical to swap in a different automatic. You would give up the electronic integration most likely. You could swap in a manual, but that seems like a lot of work. Personally, I would just work to reduce the risk to the minimum possible, within the constraints presented. That is why I recommend ZF fluid and OE filters, for example. They aren't necessarily that much better, but they are lower risk.
