Jerky or surging on acceleration

I have a 2015 x3 F25 2.0d
It has 30k miles

It has a pulsing/surging effect when accelerating..even with a slight throttle.

I was thinking it maybe the EGR? i will see if i can clean it but would have thought milage is too low for it to be clogged.

Has anyone experienced the same issue or can offer any advice before i go to dealer to get a big bill?

Would be very grateful for any help.

Cheers

Could it be in sport mode?
I have no clue what else might cause it to act this way.

EGR is on recall and it seems you're having common symptoms of EGR not working correctly. Contact a dealer and see what they say, might get your self a nice new loaner and a working x3 for free!
