Has anyone had a similar problem and what was the fix?

Thanks in advance.
I've got a 2010 X3, one of the last E83's made. Bought it as a CPO 3 years ago, and it has this same symptom. But, once it warms up, it shifts just fine. I think this is normal for these. Don't know about the '04 though.....I think the '10 has a different transmission.
