Default Issue - Lifting off throttle quickly results in jerk

All,
When I am driving on the highway and someone cuts in front of me or cuts me off and I quickly lift off the throttle to then apply the brakes, I feel a sudden jerk or shutter feeling coming through the whole car. It feels like a potential motor mount or transmission mount issue. Has anyone else felt this before and had it resolved or diagnosed it? I am taking the car to the dealer soon for a few other issues that are bugging me, and wanted to see if anyone had a TSB on what I am feeling. To be clear, the jerk feeling does not happen when getting back on throttle, but only when I quickly lift off the gas.

mine has excessive lash in the drivetrain as well. According to Jag: " that's normal ". With the MT it occurs in both directions .

Odd. I feel more like a jerk when I'm mashing the throttle down, especially with the loud button on. <shrug>

I get that one too. But this is a shutter through the driveline in almost an emergency lift off situation.
