Auto transmission jerking?

The fix I have arrived at is in the driving style. In "D" when coasting to a stop, I use the paddles to flick it into manual mode and let the automatic downshift take her down to "2", never shifts to "1". Smooth powerful launch from there, no jerking.

A little more work, but fun, too.:smile:

I don't have paddle shifters though.
