Can my 3 malfunction warning light be reset at home?

Resetting a malfunction warning light at home may be possible sometimes, but it is never recommended.

Is my 3’s transmission part of the drivetrain?

Yes, the transmission is an essential part of your 3’s drivetrain. The drivetrain consists of components — like the transmission — that transfer power from the engine to the wheels to move your 3 forward. Other components in the driver train include the axles, differential, and driveshaft.
