My M240i RWD lagged badly pulling out of a driveway, but no lights or alerts

There's a driveway near my work that I use about 5 times per week. Yesterday I was pulling out of the driveway making a left turn, but as I pulled out into traffic the car barely did anything. No tire squeal, no engine noise, it was like the pedal wasn't being pushed. Then everything built up and the car scurried out of the middle of the street.

There were definitely no CEL or traction control lights going off. It felt like I stopped pressing the gas pedal but I could feel the pedal being pushed downward. I definitely don't tend to fully utilize the B58's power; a 220i would be plenty, so this wasn't due to driving aggressively.

I'm at 49,9XX miles right now but have CPO warranty til May 2022. I can't duplicate the issue right now. Anything I should check on myself since the dealership will be unable to duplicate?

I think it is more likely something about the car than anything about yourself.

Go to the dealer anyway before too many more ignition cycles as the event may have stored a fault code, even if it doesn't happen again.
