Unbalance between front and rear brakes
I am encountering following issue with my new 250. When I leave from standstill brake pedal pushed down - e.g. traffic light - and go to gas pedal, you can feel jerky small movement. It feels like front brake calibers are releasing a little bit earlier than rear calibers (so you move like a 1/10 second against rear brakes and then they release also).
You can also feel this on HOLD function. Brakes release when you push gas pedal but you feel small jerk. This does not happen all the time, maybe every third stop or so.
Or could this be transmission or 4WD lock which syncs between front and rear driveshafts?
Anyone else feeling this (jerk/small klonk).

I feel the same, I think it's just the hold and the hill start function (I think it's on every time you stop not just on hills but from a stationary position) in the brake system...
From Mercedes themselves..
ADAPTIVE BRAKE extends the scope of ESP® to include a convenient Hill Start Assist feature and the HOLD function, which automatically prevents the vehicle from rolling forwards or backwards unintentionally from a stationary position.
