your not supposed 2 downshift to 1st unless at really low mph. in any car you drive with tip downshifting to 1st is not smooth and shouldnt be done. same goes for manual trannys

It is rough going to 1. Anything feeling jerky is not good to be done in my opinion.

Learn the engine and it shouldn't be a problem.
