Default 2015 V6s Lurch in second gear

Hi all- this is my first post.

I have recently bought a low miles 2015 v6s AWD
very happy with the car- looks and sounds amazing.
I have noticed however that I seem to have a problem with second gear sometimes- at around mid throttle i get quite marked lurching/jerking.
i thought this might be the auto transmission, but even when driving in semiautomatic mode i note that it happens only in second gear.
basically if i put the power on gently it's fine and if I floor it it's fine, but at about mid throttle i get big lurches

has anyone else experienced this? is it a known thing?


cheers


george

I get similar in dynamic mode with the gearbox in sport mode on my rwd 2016 S, but it is tuned and as far as I can remember it was less noticeable before the tune

You're still under warranty correct? Just take it to the dealer and see if they too find an issue with it.
