530i Wavy Acceleration Problem

Hi everyone,
When I try to accelerate my G30 530i with “constant throttle”, mostly on uphill roads, it somehow makes a strange “wavy” movement as if I intentionally press and release throttle once per second. So the car shakes back and forth quite noticeably.
Any ideas or similar experience and hopefully solution about the problem?

wow i had this problem on my brand new M550i, but then after a few thousand kms it went away. mine was very subtle though, you can't notice it unless you really concentrate.

did you take it in as a warranty job?

thanks
