Very slow speed tight turning.
But like I said improved 80% since fluid change.
I went to the nearby independent BMW specialist and he reset the transfer case oil adaptation, but can’t really tell if improved any further.
I’m happy I did the fluid change because before that it was sounding really bad and felt like square back tires almost from all the chunking and clunking.

I just did transfer case adaption value recalibration with ISTA/D (AKA Rheingold) and it seems that any remaining rear jerking issue went away completely.
To do that I had to buy OBD2-style BMW specific scan tool from Amazon for $59.99. The seller did not include ISTA/D with the DVD that came with tool (DVD only had INPA that can't recalibrate transfer case adaptions). So I had to ask seller explicitly to provide ISTA/D download link, which he did.
I am wondering if perhaps your indy did not do a proper transfer case re-calibration? Or maybe, unfortunately, your transfer case is worn out completely...
P.S.1 I probably need to take car for a longer drive to be 100% sure that jerking issue is gone 100%.
P.S.2 I would not be surprised that transfer case was having all these issues because few years ago one tire got flat and was replaced with brand new, while remaining three were ~50% worn.
