pulsating when accelerating

I've had my 2013 X3 for about a month and a half.

Occasionally, when I am accelerating hard, I feel I slight lurching or pumping feeling from the car. It kinda reminds me of my manual Toyota Truck when I let out the clutch too fast and the vehicle kinda wiggled. I seem to notice it more when accelerating in a turn (like a turn lane when the light turns green) but it happens sometimes in straight aways too. Like I said, it's fairly rare...but I'm paranoid. What could it be?

Thanks,

it could be various things such as your transmission adapted to your normal driving style to your stability control stepping in since you say that it happens mostly when your accelerating hard around a corner.

Doesnt seem like something worry about but if you're unsure just take it to the dealer.

Yeah I really hope it's nothing serious. I'm going to wait for this tank of gas to get out of the system and see if it still happens. I asked the dealer about it over the phone and they were about as helpful as a brick wall.
