Hi

Hope someone can help I have 2013 Auto TD4 Freelander 2 and occasionally not that often when I’m heavy traffic I sometimes get a slight jerk/ jump. When going from complete stand still to movement. It feels like the breaks are holding for to long the wheels when the engine is already turning on and wants to go, and then it release it, the car jumps. And it is only happens when the car has to stop and start many times constantly.. something is overheating?

Never happens when the car is moving just occasionally when at standstill in traffic.

Also when the jump happen and if I select N and D and accelerat quickly the jump is gone, but if I hold on the break again the jump happen. ( Electric break assistant turns on after 3sec? )

What been already serviced/checked:

-Transmission oil and filter been changed 1 year ago ( could be wrong oil? )
-Fuel filter been changed
-Water pump been changed
-Crankshaft sensor been replaced to Bosch
-Haldex unit been serviced
-EGT&EGR been cleared and serviced (what show on the Diagnostic report attached)

Next thing I would like to look into is the Break calipers and the Electric handbreak. I saw many people experienced the same issue with FL2 but I can not find any exact solution, it is getting really hard now. Gearbox specialist garage has an opinion, the gearbox is just fine but they could be wrong...

Also is there any option to turn off the Electric break assistant? (sorry if it is a dumb question..)

Diagnostic report attached,

I have tried give as much details as I can, Any ideas please, any help will be much appreciated.

Thank you!
