car jerking

Ok heres the problem ive been having, ive looked everywhere and have found similar problems but none exactly the same. I have a 05 every once in a while it will jerk hard when it is switching gears, it doesnt seem to effect it going in to gear though it just jerks, and if i immediatly take my foot off the gas it will jerk again. I cannot pin point when it wants to do this, it will never happen when i have a full tank of gas, but as the gas goes down the more likely it will happen.If i let it get down close to empty it will do it almost everytime i drive the car. It never starts that way when it happens its at least 5-10 min of driving, sometimes alot longer like 30-45 min. When im above a half a tank of gas it seems i can restart the car and it goes away, but when it gets lower in gas that doesnt seem to work anymore.When its not happening the car drives great i can shift fine and everything, and if i never let it go below 3/4 tank i can go A week w/o it happening. Anybody have any questions does this sound like a fuel issue or a transmission issue. tHANKS IN ADVANCE!
 


Well if you take your foot off the gas before a normal shift it will jerk a little because the decrease in main line pressure, completely normal.
