Default LV TDCi powershift questions

Hi guys,

Just bought a 2010 TDCi with powershift and have a couple of questions regarding the tranny and how it shifts.

I think the tranny is really nice with the exception of taking off from a standstill. It's really jerky if I use any decent amount of throttle until it gets into 3rd, from there it's very smooth. If I take of using very small amount of throttle it's ok.

Going up a slight incline at about 80kph in 5th (manual mode) the revs will vary slightly by a couple of hundred. The speed doesn't change and it's not changing gears and I can't really feel the change but I can hear the revs changing slightly. Seems to me the only way that can happen is if the clutch is slipping.

Not sure this is all normal so would appreciate any words from someone who has one of these. Car is under warranty for three months so want to make sure all is good while the dealer still has to pay for issues
