Default first gear vibrates and shakes

When ever I start moving in first gear, the shift **** and gear shifter vibrates and shakes, is this normal? It rattles and feels almost like it is just going to pop itself out of gear. I just got this car about a week ago, and this is the first Audi I've ever owned. But I don't see how this could be normal, and it really worries me. Any suggestions?

That doesn't sound normal. Check the linkages, maybe something is loose?

Jason..did you change the filter and tranny fluid yet?
Sounds trite, but if the first gear valve is sticking, this might and probably will loosen it up,, (valve bodies get socked in with junk alot on these trannies)..
