If you want to visually see what I am talking about, whenever you are coming to a stop shift over to manual mode and watch the gear number light. The little thump you feel is when you are coming to a stop and the car shifts from second to first. A good bit of times, it is a pretty good jerk. I believe, but not for sure, that the connection from first gear to second gear is different than the connections from 2-7. That is why I just ignore it and try to not let it bother me anymore.
That's called DOWNSHIFT REV MATCH brother. What's being called a bump is your DRM is always active on manual mode. Its there so when you are on a highway, you can get an extremely fast throttle response when downshifting on the accelerator. When you downshift, say to a stop sign, you will feel the same thing. Under decel that would be called engine braking. There's nothing wrong with the car. If you don't want to feel it. Keep the car in D and only shift when you need to. Then let auto mode downshift for you.
