Vauxhall Insignia automatic not running right

Eight months ago I purchased an ex-demo Vauxhall Insignia SRi CDTi with an automatic gearbox. However, the gearbox has started feeling lumpy when I lift my foot off the accelerator and there’s a long wait in the down change. Is this a fault or normal motions for this type of car?

Doesn't sound normal to me. Get the car independently checked by a member of www.fedauto.co.uk
