Finally got the vehicle back today. Here is the fix (at least I'm hoping it is). Engine wiring harness (12-51-7-570-407) replaced. Puma case submitted. They also found a faulty gws. This was also replaced. I'm hoping this does it. If not, I'm going to have to look at the trade in program.

Has anyone used the BMW trade in program because they cannot fix a problem?

I've just updated the post.
In my case it was a throttle body. I heard of two more cases like this: one was a throttle body the other was a wiring.

Good Luck.

Thanks for the update. No more error messages as well. I think we are good on this front. Vehicle going in tomorrow for hesitation at the line. The vehicle will surge into 2nd gear. Usually occurs with heavy load (A/C on). The car seems sluggish in general. I've read several posts on this and I hope it does it when I take it in tomorrow. Maybe adaptive drive reset?
