Update:

I spoke with the same dealership who did my spark plug service. He said that the ECU/Computer Reprogram is NOT covered under my Powertrain+ Warranty so I'll be out the $250 to roll the dice with that if I want to try it.

He also mentioned during my first oil change a different BMW dealership did in fact do a computer reprogram because I was experimenting a rough shift. It was smooth but hard if that makes sense. That fixed that issue but then this developed after that. He suggested I call that dealership and see if they have details on what update they did because he couldn't see the details at his dealership.

I'm considering bringing it to an independent shop now that the ECU isn't covered in my warranty unless anyone has any other thoughts or suggestions?
