i think sometimes with things like the dct where the computer is moving actual clutches, sometimes it makes a mistake and has to compensate, and we notice something weird happening when it is doing it's "fail safe" thing. i'm just guessing.
Someone idling into me is exactly how it feels like. I guess since it happens rarely I shouldn't be too worried. It just gets pretty annoying because its super random and catches me by surprise.
