In the case of DSG, the clutch disengages very quickly so give enough time to transmission to engaged the gear completely.
When you take foot off the brake, wait for a second. If you accelerate the car before the clutch engage completely, then it may be happens that car jerks.

The early 6-speed transmissions had a number of software updates. You may need to bring it to a dealer for a program update.
