2008 Vauxhall Corsa changing between 1st & 2nd gears

Car: Vauxhall Corsa
Year: 2008
Variant: 1.2
Categories: Running Rough, Starting & Power Loss
In the 3 mnths I have had the car the gear changing between 1st & 2nd is never consistent - sometimes really smooth, sometimes really clunky and sometimes it almost pops into 2nd without me hardly touching it!. Been back to Vauxhall dealer who said it was the gear linkage and they ordered the parts & did the work but didnt really explain what the work involved. Two weeks later and it was still the same. Took it back and they 'adjusted it'. Two weeks on again and it is still the same. Booked to take it back next week but Im getting really p****d off with this problem. The body of the car also judders quite violently when pulling off in first - again it is not consistent and doesn't happen all the time. Help :-(
