@r1200gs4ok - "as for the “thud”.....I have no issue slowing from speed to 0mph.....once stopped, when I start off, I sometimes feels a small bump (could be a thud).....the more I think about it, it is a small thud sound......does not happen all the time, but it only happens when I start off really slow and and take foot off accelerator to stop......its like when you have the creep mode on......you press brake to stop.....with hold mode on, I just take for off peddle and feel this thud.....going in for the air suspension Tuesday and I will ask them about it...."
October 2019 build, performance version. Same very minor thud/pop from a stop. I only hear this when "stop" mode is engaged. I am pretty sure this is a very small delay in the car releasing the parking brake. Car slows to a stop and the parking brake is engaged to hold the car imobile (only with stop mode on). Press on the accelerator and the motors start applying torque a split second before the parking brake releases. When the brakes do release there is a minor pop and a barely perceptible lurch felt in the drivetrain. I never hear of feel this unless the stop mode is engaged. This sensation is consistent and has never been really noticeable to passengers. It's only that I know when I begin to depress the accelerator pedal that makes it noticeable.
