E46 330ci transmission full limp mode

Recommended Posts

Hi everyone , recently been experiencing some rough shifting, loss of low end torque and a rough idle.Replaced the DISA O ring and this remedied these problems to a certain extent however yesterday my transmission light came on and went into limp mode, the one that doesn't go away. Scanned the car with the INPA system and retrieved these codes from the engine :
 
125 Activation Electric Fan (i dont have an electric fan)
90 Exhaust Temperature Pre Cat Conv – Bank 1
91 Exhaust Temperature Pre Cat Conv – Bank 2
93 Exhaust Temperature Post Cat Conv -Bank 2
63 DME Control Unit or Ambient Temp Signal via CAN (MS43)
 
I also pulled these codes from the transmission:
 
59 Knock Sensor -Bank 2 (this has accured 12 times apparently)
65 Camshaft Position Sensor (Inlet MS43)
 
The transmission failed previously at 213,000kms but got it fitted with a lower km trans. Car is now at 219,080.
 
Any ideas on if the transmission has already gone bad or something else at fault which is sending the car into limp mode. Sorry for the long post , any help is appreciated, cheers.
