I immediately let go off the accelerator and moments later a red popup comes saying the engine is overheated and I need to pull over and shut the car off. So i am slowing down and suddenly all the messages are gone. I check the control and all systems are OK / oil temp is fine.. Should I go to the dealer or was this some sort of glitch?

Anyone ever experience this issue?
I’d have BMW tow it to the dealer. It shouldn’t get hot just from aggressive street driving, and overheating the engine is not something you want to gamble with.
