Must be your foot. hahaha

I've never experienced any jerking, only more instantaneous acceleration in all gears.

I borrowed John's SB, i can feel it respond better, but it jerks a alot at around 2- 2.5 rpm.
Were you in Steptronic or D/DS mode? I only drive in Steptronic mode, so maybe that's why? It is a bit jerky when you first lay on the gas, but that's fine with me. It's actually fun when my wife is in the car and she's messing with her bag and I jump on the gas and it throws her back in the seat. She, of course, gives me crap and say's, "what the hell?!", but I just laugh and keep going. Hahahahaha!

Is it jerky at the first push of the pedal or does it jerk while you're driving and your foot pressure is constant?
