Jerkiness on acceleration

Msportdriver1 · 08-08-2022, 06:16 AM

Has anyone had a jerkiness / stutter when accelerating? say for instance doing 50 mph in comfort , depress accelerator to overtake and car accelerates but has a jerkiness for a split second, i think around gear change times. it has been driven by a BMW tech who i trust but did not exhibit the symptom and he says it changed gear properly. Any ideas?? Yes it has and always has had bmw star rated tyres currently on a new -ish set about 3 k miles on them always changed as a set.

Has nothing to do with the tires and doesn't matter if they are "star" thats not even a thing here in the states.. at all.

How many miles/kilometers and have the plugs been changed?

High its just one of the first things the BMW Garage check, its a diesel and does not have plugs just injectors. 56k miles.

Definitely helps to add that to your posts when trying to sort out an issue 😆

Add 2 tubes of LUBEGUARD shutter fix to the tranny. I had the same issues on my X5 and it solved it immediately. Drives like new now.
