Autopilot Jerky?!?

Hi, before I open a trouble ticket, just wanted to know if anyone else a seeing a little jerkiness from the autopilot? When it engages it may jerk to correct to the correct heading at first then flies OK; but, on the turns of the flight following the MCP - it jerks at first (to the direction of the turn) them smooths out as it get going through the turn.Also if the plane is on heading and a new heading was selected, it also jerks then smooths out. Thanks,Benny Miller

+1 This happens in the MD11X and 747 too. By way of comparison the LDS 767 is silky smooth in its AP behavior. Maybe my machine is not fast enough?

Agreed. I thought it might also be pilot error considering I have never flown a real 737NG and maybe it's something to do with timing, flight path, etc...
