That's been pretty normal for all the stick-shift cars I've driven, especially in first or second gear. I often shift into neutral when slowing down to avoid the bucking. Gradually slowing down, instead of just taking your foot off the pedal, also seems to help. It's a bigger problem for me in smaller cars. It's seldom as severe as yours seems to be, though. |

Is this something new in your car? How many miles on your clutch? |

What RPMs are you experiencing this around? This should normally only occur at really low RPMs |

do you hear a 'clicking' when you are turning a corner? |

I'd be suspicious of your motor mounts. |
