I am almost positive one of your two clutch plates are out of spec causing the issue.

However, here is something you can try since your unable to bring your car in to the dealer for a while.

Our DCT transmissions are adaptive - they learn the drivers driving characteristics. The below is used on the M3's M-DCT to reset the adaptations. Might be worth a try to see if it works on the M5.

1) Unlock car, get in and insert key (don't put foot on brake).
2) Press 'Start' button once, but do not start engine.
3) Press accelerator pedal down to floor and hold for 25 secs.
4) Remove foot from accelerator and place on brake pedal. Start engine & drive car normally.
5) Over time, transmission will 'learn' your driving style and adapt to it.
