02 S60 Acceleration shift shock

I will try and describe this the best I can. When driving and letting off the gas completely letting the car coast then gradually pressing the gas pedal, there is this half second delay and hard engagement like someone is under the car hitting it with a sledge hammer. Now I know my car's transmission problems from that year and I have went through a transmission flush and also installed the b4 servo from ipd. This eliminated completely the shift flares I was experiencing. I also put a new transmission mount on from ipd. Do you think I should replace other mounts in the engine or go ahead and schedule a software update for the transmission at a volvo dealership? Thanks.

Maybe check the hydraulic engine mount in the front, under the fan.

doesn't seem like an engine mount problem, try this, sit in the car and have someone look at the motor and with your foot on the break, shift from neutral to drive then reveres, does the motor look like its tilting towards you ? you can tell if that mount is bad!

Did you reset transmission oil change counter? TCM takes care of toasted oil and starts locking torque converter as often as possible.
