But, when you drive it in "manual"mode and just the gear shift to upchange it's a different car altogether.

I'm starting to wonder whether this is the correct way of driving it.
I believe the only LV focus with the dual clutch is the TDCi diesel. The petrol models such as the Zetec would have had a regular auto gear box

If your LV Zetec Auto is having issues as you describe it may be having actual problems as opposed to behaving a little differently to what you're used to because of it being dual clutch
