Hi there.
Well because its a auto box you could have a band or pump problem which is in the gear box and is bathed in auto matic fluid oil and that could be your problem as the bands do wear down fast on a lot of cars and BMW with there power that could be you.
So take it to a auto box people and get it checked out.
look at the big black waterhose at the top of the engine. where it touches the engine is a tubular housing with some bolts. thats gotta come off, and under there is the thermostat. just pull it out, scrape the old gasket off the engine and the tubular piece, get some blue rtv and glue the gasket back on and put it back 2gether with a new thermostat
With such high revving engines (me being a Honda fanatic) you need to keep an eye on oil levels. Check the level, top up as necessary. Without the correct amount of oil in, the oil pressure cannot stimulate the switch over cam, which takes it to 8500rpm.
Also, please don't rev you car without load (ie. standing still), this causes valve lash and is detrimental to the engine. Again, please do not rev your car hard without letting the oil get up to temperature or it won't last long :)
Once you check your oil, reset the ECU by pulling the battery lead off for around 20 minutes.
Good luck and have a blast. Could you vote for me if this helps you. Thanks.
If your car has climate control, remove the glovebox, and change the heater temp from the lowest to the highest setting. you should hear the electric motors pulling cables in the dash. it's probably a faulty control unit in the dash, you're certain there's hot water going through the matrix?
try putting your vehicle on a diagnostic check although you have changed the alternator the ECU ( car computer ) may still think that the alternator is still faulty a diagnostic check will cure your problem by clearing the fault codes on your ECU
i checked the linkage and that seems to be working fine
