That’s just how the ZF8 is, the shifts from 1-2 are in general much much more lurchy than all of the other gear shifts, it’s normal to have that. I’ve been in other cars with this tranny that feel similar. It also skips gears (at least in the display) when downshifting in auto al the way to stop so that could make it more lurchy than manually downshifting yourself. I’ve noticed the upshifts from 1-2 are also pretty lurchy, especially when you aren’t WOT at a high RPM when you’re shifting.

Another thing to note is that the instrument cluster updates gears visually before the gearshift is actually completed, so you may be between shifts from 2-1 for example and it will say 1 on the dash.
