i wonder if there is a software change between the years. My AT hasnt hesitated on any shifts when in manual mode. Now when it is in auto mode it does seem jerky, and a little indecisive at times.

Yeah, never happened once in the 20k miles I've driven it. Maybe you should take it to the dealer and get it checked out?
