Sorry if I'm posting in the wrong section of the forum.

So to start off, I got a 2014 Sports Package 370z 7AT

The problem is which I'll refer to as "the kick" in this thread.

I ALWAYS start the car up and leave it idle until the RPM is under 1 before taking it out.

So the kick happens when I'm just cruising, more specifically when I let go of the gas pedal(Foot off the gas and pedal from here on out) and then the RPM goes down to about 1.5 to 1. then it "kicks" and the rpm jumps back up to 2 then down to 1.5 to 1 again. This makes the car jerk a slightly bit

I heard some people talk about the sports traction mode or something. Is this why it "kicks" or is something wrong with my car :'(

Thanks guys. Any feedback would be appreciated.
