Question 2021 M4 base, occasional engine hesitation

Hi. I own a 2021 M4 Base model car with some engine hesitation issues. Sometimes in 3rd gear at around 3k-3.5k RPM on a spirited run, the engine starts to hesitate/stutter until I switch it into 4th, as if I kept tapping the accelerator rapidly or it's being starved of fuel.

I took it into the local dealer a while back, but the mechanic and I weren't able to reproduce it. Of course, it happened again later that evening.

I don't notice this happening in any other gear or RPM range, just 3rd gear @ 3-3.5k RPM.

Has anyone ever experience this in their G82 M4 MT car?

Cheers.

If they cant fix it, make sure you track it for Lemon Law.

Damn I have a M4 Base, I'll keep an eye out for what you mean. The only weird thing I've noticed is some times in idle I get small disturbances and it slightly shakes, nothing too serious.

Try to use up all the fuel that's currently in there and fill it up elsewhere. If it happens with a different fuel, you can at least exclude that as a possibility.
