The 2006 X5 should be a ZF 6HP26. If it's a hard 2-1 downshift could be the start of transmission fail which is very very common. I have just had to rebuild mine. Either stear clear or offer less...

I've got the same issue too and it's driving nuts! Funny how mine also lurches more on incline and turning. Can't figure out what that is. I had a small gasket leak for a while and the issue started...

I've also had this on my "06 e53 (ZF 6HP26). It always happens when the battery is low. I've got a faulty starter which drains the battery so it hasn't been started in a while I'll get this message.
