I'm just wondering if this is a random glitch or if it means something funny is going on with the car. She runs flawless otherwise. Could it be something related to an electrical glitch, a sign of the alternator going bad (less than 14k miles on the car), or something brake or traction control related? Could it be cuz I'm losing some traction while it is boosting so the brake light trips slightly before the VDC kicks on?
I have the same thing happen to me sometimes whenever I am WOT shifting into 2 and 3. It started after I ground my navtool to my ebrake, so I am afraid I over tightened it. But there haven't been any problems yet, and its been happening for over a month now.
