I drive with the Paddle shifters most of the time but I agree when driving in (D) at low speeds it can be jerky. I usually lightly roll into the throttle at lower speeds seems to help make the car shift smoother and keeps it from skip shifting into a gear you weren't expecting.

On a Side Note:
An unexpected result from my ERZ HFC install is throttle response is so good now that when in (D) the car has become a lot smoother at low speeds. The Auto has pretty aggressive short 1st - 3rd gears so when cruising around town at low speeds the car can be jerky. The added throttle response and torque has smoothed the lower gears out.
