N55 DCT Problems
So my 2010 335i DCT is sitting at 102000 miles and a week ago as I was reversing into my drive which is angled slightly upwards, the orange transmission light came on saying the transmission is overheating and said try not to keep driving in a stop and go style. I check for codes and I can't remember the exact codes but it said red phase and black phase. It didn't happen since then until yesterday evening when I parked on my road and just disengaged the reverse gear. For some reason it only seems to happen when I use the reverse gear but not all the time. I took it to a local BMW specialist and he diagnosed the whole car which took the whole day. He believes it is either the filter and transmission oil needs to be changed, or there is a problem with the clutch which is quoted over £2000. I just wanted to see if anyone else has gone through the same thing or has any advice they can give me.
