please do not burn it, the problem is with your transmission cooler,my guess. Disconnect those stuffs shown to you in the picture above..

I'm thinking that unit has a leak...it should be fixed or replaced...

Jack the car up, stand in front of it then look underneath,you will see two hoses,coming from further the gearbox, travelling towards the radiator from beneath (all these you'd see when you bend down as though you were looking at the bottom of the radiator)

look for where the hoses terminate, that is the transmission cooler....look for a way to get it detached. Inspect it properly if it is still okay, I'm very certain that was where the problem originated

Why don't you try presenting your problem on the BMW owner's forum thread. I'm sure the guys there should be able to help out.

Your torque converter is likely responsible...hopefully we'll hear from Mr. Siena soon
