Default FYI: If your DBW AP2 is no longer smooth ...

... it might be your Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor. Throw the car in cruise and see if it's cured. If it is, this APPS is a prime culprit. Mine went three months in partial throttle jerkiness until it FINALLY threw a code and was replaced under my 100k Hondacare warranty. I like my car again, lol. If it still happens in cruise control, it might be your throttle position sensor (or if you have an earlier model). Just thought I'd share this, as many are blaming heat soak and map sensors for this partial throttle jerkiness. A new APPS cured my issue 100%. Hope this helps someone else.
