Default on/off throttle engine thumping / 'bouncing' with MT6 3.0Q?

If I drive around in 1st and let off the throttle, the car feels a bit like it's bouncing back and forth as the engine slows it down. It's less noticeable in higher gears, but can be felt both when letting off the throttle and getting on it (even gently).

Is this normal? Have I got a bad engine or snub mount?

Why let off the gas? Keep it floored ...J/K that's just the way a manual drives
