2013 S-550 w AMG transmission

Hi,

New to our family. It has a stumble when cold, hesitating during acceleration. Also when fully warmed up , it has a slight hesitation when accelaerating.

there are no codes, engine runs smoothly, starts easily no other issue. Have other owners had this issue? Id so can they post up re the most likely fix(es)

the cold hesitation is fairly abrupt.

Here is VIN WDDNG7DB5DA502577. Is there a way to have a VMI pulled, other than at the dealer ?

I appreciate any and all help

Milburn

Well took it to MB and they determined it wasnt shifting correctly. turns out it was low on Trans fluid. will need mount an eng mounts too. they refilled transmission. confirmed no codes . Drive much better now. will do mounts in a month. Gonna order 255/45zr18 103Y XL Conti tires, Turn out it is a std model even though it has paddle shifters and vin decoder says it has the AMG transmission, it came with 18 in rims not the 19 in sport model rims
