7spd gearbox
Recently encountered a few 'Gearbox malfunction - you can continue driving' messages on my driver's display. Fluid was replaced shortly after I got the car in Oct 2022. It can occur immediately on engine start or after a few seconds. The error message occurs more reliably on a trip to the shops when I return to the car so I'm wondering if this is heat-related i.e. multiplug connector coming loose when warm:

Not sure but I have a feeling that my car might need to have the mechatronics upgrade kit fitted to fix this. Has anyone had this done on their B8 3.0 V6 supercharged? Or could it simply be a loose electrical connection?
Cheers
