It started gradually, yeah. Anything I can check myself before taking it in?

I understand. Unfortunately, with electronic control units, there isn't much you can do without specialized diagnostic tools. Given the symptoms you described, especially the emergency mode and stored error code, I would strongly recommend taking it to a trusted workshop for professional diagnosis. A defective control unit often requires specialized programming or replacement, something best left to experienced technicians.

Thanks for the advice. Took it to a shop and they confirmed it was the transmission control unit. Cost me 1000€ to replace but it's running smooth now.

Hello there. Your symptoms do sound like a defective transmission control unit, yes. I had similar issues with my old BMW 5 series, although the grinding wasn't present in my case. The emergency mode and error codes are very telling. Was the issue always present or did it begin gradually?
