I was having trans problems on my E39 2002 530i with about 85K mi. It was slipping on starting from a stop, and not shifting crisply. No warning lights. local shop said to rebuild or replace trans. this is said by factory to be a no service trans.
After reading up on the issue I decided to replace the fluid and filter in the trans. the problem cleared right up. Whew!!
Not sure if this is the answer you need but may get you looking in the right direction.
There is some info here on the BMW forum, and on bimmer fest Forum.
Good luck with yours.

Cheers Richard
