My 3.0 automatic started with that message at 500 miles 2 weeks ago, now at 600 miles stll comes on and now "service engine soon" light came on. It stayed on after following restart procedure. Great, 1 month old X5 going to dealer tomorrow.
So I got that evil transmission error warning on the display after shifting from neutral to drive at a stop light. I remembered reading about the problem in the manual (yeah I read it, so shut up). So the fix is to turn the car off. Turn it back on.

Kinda like when your computer hangs. Ha ha very funny.

Rebooting my $1500 pc is ok with me every now and then.

Rebooting my f'n $50k ride may just send me over the falls.
