C63S Jerky/Flattering tachometer

Hi,

I have a YM 2016 Mercedes C63S.
My problem is that when I press the accelerator medium hard the car is jerky. I can also see at the tachometer that it
is not smooth, it is moving a little up and down. When I drive soft the problem is smaller and when I drive hard I can not
feel any of this problem.
When the car is cold the problem is not there but after 5-10 minutes it starts.
It is the same in manuell mode.
Mercedes can not find any error messages.
Does anyone have an idea why this is happening and how to solve it??
Thanks!
Best Regards

the transmission when cold is a bit jerky but that i believe is mainly to protect it from damage. once warmed up, it should be much better. The only other thing to say on this matter is my car jerks when downshifting perhaps from 3rd to second or 2nd to 1st where it jerks as the clutch engages.

My local dealer was meant to give me a software update but i cant say whether they have or not. Have they updated any software on yours? or done any resets?

Thank you for your replay!

My problem is not the same as yours.
I have updated the software 3 month ago.

Just wondering if you ever got a fix?

I have a similar issue to what you’ve said.
