More "possible" 7AT issues

I'm about 28k and really like to drive in manual mode most of the time and do notice a little jerk when downshifting from 2nd to first when I switch

Honestly think its just the computer picking back up where you left it.

yeah it's as if the computer is re-adjusting the throttle and rpm. I get the same jerk sometimes.

Yeah that is pretty common design flaw of the 7AT, I drove brand new Infiniti Q50S, EX37 and G37 vehicles with the 7AT transmissiosn and they all do the same clunk occasionally, especially when you do a hard stop while simultaneously switching back to D ( Full Auto ). I drive these cars very often since they are all my customers car and I can confirm that. Nothing we can do about this. No TSB for reprogramming either. But so far it did no harms, just annoying, that's all.
