I'm in a 24 x1 now and it's been much much muuuuch better and I wonder if the super jerkiness that some people experience from the get go is indicative of this issue. My new 24 drove seamlessly from the start and even my start stop wasn't as invasive/laggy. Like I don't mind driving with it on now vs I couldn't drive without turning it off before. Granted I'm only at 2k miles now but this is around when the first time I ran into the issue with the 23, so I guess I'll report back if anything happens here with the 24!
I hope that everything works out with your car! I never had a loud thud or anything, I just would lose power and become very jerky or I couldn't reverse.

I have also just come across this thread. My 2023 reg X1 (registered 11/01/2023) is currently in my local BMW dealership with a transmission issue, exactly the same thing came up on my dash as the original poster.
It started with a software update, which drained the battery, would hardly move when pressing the accelerator, then I couldn't reverse it. BMW had to get roadside assistance to collect it from my drive. After getting it sorted, I went to pick it up, jumped in it and the transmission issue came up. This was 2 weeks ago. They have had to raise a ZARA with BMW, as they don't know what's wrong. So far they have checked the OB wiring, and now got to check some other wiring.
After reading the threads, I've juat realised that I too have had a clunking noise, mainly when I slow and come to a standstill in the car.
Has anyone had any answers/know what needs doing to the car as my local dealership are just going off a check list sent down from BMW.
