Default A3 Transmission Issue...Maybe

Hello. New here, I just bought my first Audi, a 2012 A3 Diesel S-tronic. The tranny seems jerky at slow speeds, especially when slowing to a stop. Almost feels like driving a stick and putting the car into 1st gear and popping the clutch. This is in D, not S. Dealer says nothing's wrong, naturally. Tranny isn't as smooth as another I drove, and most def not near my Volvo S60, which is 8 years old. Any comments/ideas/knowledge on this type of issue would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

This car has a computer controlled dual clutch stick shift. It is doing everything one does with a stick shift. It does rev-match during downshift, which one usually doesn't do when downshifting.
