Drivetrain Malfunction error

Hey guys so I was wondering if anyone else has ever experienced this.
I drive a F32 435xi with JB4(map 5) and an ER downpipe. Car has 9k miles on it.
Randomly when I start up the car I will get a error that pops up saying, "Drivetrain malfunction drive moderately maximum power not output"
I am wondering if this is something that pops up due to the tune or if I should scan my cods through the tune to see what is going on. Any input would be fantastic! Thanks guys and girls!

Do you have the most up to date firmware?

I get it sometimes when it's really cold, but it's been months since the last time I got it.

Lose connection, bad ground, or your one of your sensors is going out because you have a bad ground. But you should always check codes before you post in the forums, because until then it's all 100% speculation.
