Default audi s8 gearbox judder

Hi to all.

I am a 1st time poster so apologies if this has already been covered.
i've recently bought a 1998 audi s8 and recently i have noticed the downward gearchanges on under brakes have become shall we say quite jerky,
This in itself as not a major problem,however sometimes when downchanging in order to pick up speed ( although not when full kickdown) the car does shudder for about 3 to 4 seconds, it almost feels as though the car is struggling for traction even though 1) I know it wouldnt because its 4 wheel drive and 2) i'm not putting much power down.

Anyone with any ideas?? is it the dreaded audi gearbox again as i have read so much of in this forum.

Thanks in advance
Steve, Sheffield uk
