If there are any leaks they would be visible on the ground most of the time. I am thinking that there is either a internal issue or could a low fluid level cause the "jerking" you are experiencing?
Good luck.

put in sport mode while on idle shift from 2nd to first see if it slams sometimes is won't but most of the time it will but your problem is defiantly a tranny issue your tranny pan might need to be serviced really hard to tell but defiantly tranny needs attention very common with our cars

Sounds like the second to first gear slam,, ( serge ) when coming to a stop , with foot on the brake . Feels like your getting rear ended .
A transmission update did the trick on my car with that exact problem . Been fine since then ,and has never done it again ...
