In my XE (RWD), there is a distinct feeling of something engaging/disengaging, occuring probably around 5mph, when you are coasting down to a stop. I've always assumend this was just the torque converter going from locked mode to slippery.
It's not the gears changing, because it will occur if you are in S mode in 1st gear.

I get low speed surge/lurch too. I think it's the engine timing - I used to be a street bike rider and on street bikes the engine computers typically retard the timing in the lower gears to prevent surging/lurching in low engine RPM. I used to add modulators to my bikes to make them think they were always in the gear with the most advanced timing - the affect on my low speed control was exactly like what I feel in my f type.
