DCT overheating

I have a 2013 135, low, miles (55,560). The DCT temp indicator (picture below) came on amber and immediately switched to red and shut down the engine of my car. I waited a minute, restarted the car and it ran fine. I was not driving the car hard. It was around the town driving.

I took it into a BMW dealer and they claim its a water pump issue. That does not make sense to me as my understanding is the DCT transmission cooling is separate. Can anyone advise me here?
