Just reading this wondering if this could be the source of my vibrating 70-120 etc.
Will ask dealer tomorrow about the transmission mount damper brackets and version 43. certainly i notice it worse when decelerating on motorway or on light throttle hadn't thought to check what the revs are at as assumed until now it was suspension/wheel related. Or maybe i'm just paranoid in thinking everything is realted... Wil let you know. And thanks guys.

OK then, so I'm now in the V43 club. The car has been cured. All good. I didn't quite feel the revelation that '22' did but the main thing is that the dreaded hesitation has gone.

Be warned though, all your settings will be lost when you get the car back.

Also, the graphics on the efficient dynamics have changed. The mpg (or km/l) 'bar' that sweeps around the base of the tacho has changed from a simple red to red with an orange 'highlight'. Looks tacky to me and I don't like it. Anyone else noticed this?

I had the same problem, and it seems to be solved by V43. I realized the new graphics on the efficient dynamics. It is better IMO. They also changed the torque converter with a new one under warranty. My car is 2012MY 520d, under 5.000 kms. I hope I will not have the same problem again.
