C43 Tranny "Jerk"

Hey guys, yet another small glitch on my C43. Gee...eitheir im just not used to AMG's or this car doesnt like me much.

Start the car in the morning, let it warm up for about 2 mins and back out of the driveway in reverse....upon putting it into D gear, when the tranny engages forward it a big slam type of jerk/nudge upon engagement. It almost feels like someone has just "gently" rear-ended you when it does this type of gear engagment into D.

It Does not repeat this after even if I try to put it in R or P and then into D immediately again. It seems to just be this initial time when going into D the first time of the day especially after reversing.

Is this a software issue? Its not a flex disc issue as they are new and that would be a constant "clunking" in any gear, all the time.

P.S. records show tranny was replace in 2007 approx 20k ago. I have also had the fluid changed by my indy a month ago just so I know when it was done for my own benefit.

Thanks again!
