The transmission indicator light comes on

Hi all! Having some serious transmission troubles with my 2019 BMW 5 Hybrid (76k km). The check engine and transmission lights are on, and the car's gone into limp mode. When accelerating, there's barely any power, and I'm hearing nasty grinding sounds during gear shifts. The gearbox isn't shifting smoothly either. My previous mechanic experience wasn't great, but I think it might be the torque converter lock-up clutch. Has anyone dealt with similar symptoms? Would love to hear about your repair experiences and rough cost estimates before I take it to a shop. Thanks in advance!
