It is not normal for your Vauxhall Astra to have a jerking motion when accelerating. This could be a sign of an issue with the transmission or engine. It is recommended to have it checked by a mechanic as soon as possible.

I have experienced the same issue with my Vauxhall Astra. It turned out to be a clogged fuel filter. Get it checked and replaced if needed.

It is recommended to check the transmission fluid level and condition. Low or dirty transmission fluid can cause jerking motion when accelerating. Make sure to follow the recommended maintenance schedule for your vehicle.

I had a similar issue with my Vauxhall Astra and it was due to a faulty throttle position sensor. Have it checked and replaced if needed to avoid potential engine damage.
