2006 X5 4.4 vibration/surge while in park or in gear???

When at a stop there seems to be a rythmic pulsation/vibration to varying degree coming from the engine. The tach doesn't move but it can actually get quite annoying. It seems to happen both in park and at a stop. With and w/out heat on. The engine is fully warmed up. Once I begin driving it goes away and returns at any stop. The dealer says there are no faults being thrown and he can not replicate. I am insisting there is something wrong because a BMW should not be doing this. The tech suggest they do a injector flush/clean. Because of carbon build up and cheap gas. I told him i only run premium gas. I had them do it which cost me $150.00. The truck still surges. I only have 40K on this truck and it's got us stumped. Any thoughts before i take it back to the deal???

mine does something similar though i havent taken it to the dealer yet for this issue. it almost feels as if the engine is idling too low but i dont think that is the case

It sounds like you have an air leak somewhere or a faulty MAF sensor. Neither would show a check engine light. The other thing it could be is oil down the plug holes, another common V8 failure due to weeping camcover gaskets.
