I3s jerking/jumping setting off

[mdean22]

My wifes i3s has just done 50k miles it si a 2019 car. When setting off it clunks into drive then is fine. It kind of feels like ther is play is the drive system. I would kind of describe it as a prop shaft on a modern car having play in the bearings. Is this a known fault if so any guides on places to look.

Thank you in advance.

I guess it could be one of several things, but the first thing I would check is that the brakes are operating exactly as expected, and not binding/dragging. Compared to motor mounts, drive shafts, gear bearings, etc., it's an easy thing to check (and to fix if that's where the problem is).

It's definitely not the brakes. The car will be in neutral foot off the brakes when apply power it jumps into drive. You can be driving along take foot off accelerator then back on it will jump every time power is applied
