I don't know if this is a problem..but when I'm driving my TL and I go from first to second gear...and when it's not a smooth transition...like a jerk......my steering wheel jerks hard and I have to put two hands on my wheel to steer it straight......is this normal?

this TL is my first manual transmission car...and this is been happening for the past 3 months

 

thats what you call torque steer, it's perfectly normal when shifting hard or rapidly
