I have just had the same problem with my 2011 D4 usually happened at junctions. When setting of there was no power, so press accelerator more, then you get thrown back in your seat as the car moves off pretty sharpish.
Dealer found that the brake switch was sticking, 1 month since they sorted it and no repeat of the problem.
My old D3 suffered from turbo lag, but I have to say I have never noticed any with the D4. The nearest I have got to it was when I had the faulty brake switch.

had similar on brand new d4,,,,make sure your shoe is not catching the brake when changing peddles...
if your on throttle and you inadvertently have your foot touching the brake the slightess amount..you will confuss the computer....do you want to go or brake....
try in a carpark or somewhere easy to replicate..
