Wow! I haven't been on lately and just found this post. My 08 4.8i has had these problems since new. It is my wife's car, so I only notice it when I drive it on occassion. It iritates me whenever I drive her car, but I have just put up with it. The car is due for a one year oil change, so I found these at just the right time. Hopefully these SIB's will cure the problem.

Great Board!!

I had noticed that every so often, say 1 out of 15-20 times, I would notice some jerk motion in the take off. I also noted here that DS eliminates it, which it does, but that is not the point. I had my 4.8 e70 in yesterday and it DID have the updates already, but I bought it used, 1 year, and so they cleared the adaptation memory and I am starting fresh with the X5. I already notice a difference,. I doesnt jerk, and so far up teh hill outside my house it is not as lagging in shifting gears. I will post later for a follow up.
