Noticed the same. Definitely slips the clutch as low speed. I notice it most when you pull out of a junction where you haven't quite stopped so it's still in 2nd and it seems to ride the clutch for a bit.

The other thing I've noticed if you are in M for any reason when cold it can thud a bit when going from 1st to 2nd. But doesn't do that in D.

Mine behaves exactly like this and in addition........

When in M and moving slowly in queuing traffic I like to stop unnecessary shifting of the dsg gearbox so try to plan the gears to suit traffic flow......if I hold in 1 for say 20 seconds on steady minimal throttle and then shift to 2nd it's quite a jerky change.........does it hot or cold......leave it in D and it's as smooth as usual.

I do exactly what you've described for the same reasons and get the same jerky change......not always though.
