It may be the steering in your case but I DID finally get around to changing my xDrive fluid and resetting the fluid wear adaptations. This work cured the slight driveline shudder I had when accelerating during a tight turn, i.e. pulling away from an intersection.

For some reason changing the xDrive fluid also seemed to sorted the transmission 2-1 slam, although I have zero idea how it could have done so...
