Steering "bump" when accelerating

Does anyone know what may be causing a slight bump or very mild jolt sensation that I can sometimes feel through the steering wheel when accelerating ('01 3.0 liter)? It is most noticeable when starting from a standstill. About 1/2 to 2/3 of the time I have the smooth-as-silk acceleration (one of the many things I love about the car) but about 1/3 of the time I have this slight, but irritating feeling of motion that should not be there. It gives the feeling that there is some looseness between the steering column and the engine.
The dealer replaced the torque rod, but this didn't help the problem.
Any ideas? Thanks!
