Has it done the trick? The bump stop fix software gets very mixed reviews - sometimes it works, sometimes not. Visiting from DISCO3.CO.UK

Yes I can report that it has removed all the soft thuds and clonks I was feeling before

I strongly recommend you get it done ASAP - preferrably a full flush rather than just a fluid change (I wouldn't bother with the filter though). ZF recommend it at 50-75k. As the mileage increases, the old oil can mask issues in the box, so you can enter a world of trouble before you even know anything's wrong...

TBH the car has a good MD service record (Lookers in London), but I don't know if the transmission fluid was ever changed, maybe not , so I would be doing this for peace of mind

It's highly unlikely that they would have replaced the tranny fluid. Got - 2017 SDV8 Autobiography in Loire Blue
