I have no clue if this was ever a TSB on the 370, but it was with a limited number or FXes. When I bought my new FX, it would actually jerk my head forward when slowing down. I had the TSB tranny re-flash, and it calmed that behavior down a little, but you still can tell it's downshifting when coming to a stop. With the new 7-speed transmission, Nissan/Infiniti started with this reprogram, but I don't know if it carried to the first Zs. All newer 7-speeds will come with this reprogram from the factory.

My second video is how the transmission normally works. I never grabbed a video before my reflash.
