‘Slack’ in transmission??

I’ve noticed in my 2010 D4 a ‘jolt’ when coming off then going straight back on the gas it’s not constant more when coming to a roundabout slowing a little then moving off again, it’s not as noticeable at low speeds, is this normal and just slack in the transmission or something I need to investigate further? Gear changes are smooth enough, I changed the diff, gear box and transfer box oils a few months ago the oil was ‘dirty’ but no worrying amounts of metal on the plugs, any ideas?

I’ve got this a little and have been told it’s a little slack in the chain of the transfer box.

Thats exactly what it is, but GAP will do you a software download to practically eliminate the slack.
