Does it shut the car down completely or feel like TCS kicks in (w/no indicator light)/no throttle response? I've felt that a few times cornering this week w/less than half a tank.
Shuts down completely. Like you've just run out of gas. It's the shape of the fuel tank combined with the centrifugal force during a right hand curve/turn.

I've run my Z to zero dots and mileage remaining -- more than once. That fill up is usually about 18.5 gallons I don't use either of those indicators btw... I reset my mileage every tank and can pretty much gauge exactly how much gas I have left based on that mileage and my recent driving habits
