Question 2007 350z hops at 1000 rpms and creaking noise from left rear help

when im rolling slowly and lightly press the gas as soon as i reach 1000 rpm's the car hops and it does it almost every time. i took it to 2 dealerships and of course i got 2 different answers. the first one said i needed a clutch even though there were no signs of slippage or a worn out clutch, the second said i needed to clean my injectors which i did through the dealership but i still have this problem also both dealerships said they dont hear any creaking noise. the only time you hear the creaking noise from the rear left tire is when youre driving slow and when you pull out of the driveway. does anyone have any ideas of what are causing these problems????????

A lot of 07-08 guys have been having this problem, check out this link to see possible solutions, i think it has something to do with CAM Timing, might have to disable it till the car is warm enough.

My cars been doing this as well ever since the Slave cylinder recall. Hops around 1200 rpms when going slow. So annoying, the gf has ragged me about this for years.

Edit: Warming it up won't have any effect, been there done that. It does it anytime while driving. I think it has something either to to with the timing or the clutch parts. Mine didn't start doing it till the dealership did my clutch slave cylinder recall.

Yes, I installed a ZSpeed slave and master cylinder as well as an aftermarket clutch and flywheel and the problem is gone.

You've probably had the slave cylinder recall on your car and they probably installed or adjusted something wrong.
