Anyone ever get info on this or what's causing the code to trigger? I just got Bimmerlink and cleared all the bogus codes my 2017 340 x drive was throwing. This code remains and Bimmerlink says it is unable to remove the code.

No permanent codes/errors, just this single code showing up in Info Memory that will not go away.

FWIW, I purchased the car CPO back in November with 30k miles on the nose. I'm pretty close to hitting 35K right now. At about 32,500 I very luckily noticed a fluid leak in my driveway by chance. Wasn't even looking for it because I figured the car is so new why would it be leaking. I diagnosed it as a front diff leak and took it in. O ring and bolt on the front diff were replaced under warranty and new fluid was added.

Related/unrelated? I'm covered with CPO until May 2022, but I've read a lot of issues with people having front diffs, rear diffs, and TC replaced on these cars. Would like to get it all sorted before losing the warranty.

Thanks for any help/info.
