Reason I ask is, I did lose power taking a right-hand turn from a dead stop with the car cold, tires cold, etc. and I could maybe see VDC coming on because I did tip in pretty aggressively, but I did not see the light. :confused: |
TBH I'm not sure. If I was doing something that really required VDC to kick in quite a bit I was usually not concerned with looking down at the cluster. And it's been months since I've had the car so little details like the VDC light are very much a blur to me now.

I'm trying to determine if I experienced the problem in that scenario or if I could have just missed the VDC blink (or if it was some other issue.) I'm thinking it was VDC. I hope. :p |
i have vdc kick in often without the light coming on.

I also had this one happen... i was on a slight uphill - needing to merge out onto a road with speedy traffic... disappointing.. |
I have a stock 09 touring sport and have been experiencing this EXACT issue for about a month now. This is normal day to day driving, have never raced the car and only JUST turned over 13k miles. Everything you guys say describes what I feel exactly. I've gone to one dealership that didn't do anything. Will go to the dealership that changed out my ECU on Friday.
Has anyone had any luck with finding out what is going on? It was so bad last night I couldn't even get the car to go up my driveway....granted, its a little steep, but it's a 370 for ?#$^@ sake!!! |

Summers are always bad. Typically the exhaust would drone very loud, and the car barely has the power to move when I give it more throttle. However, something changed since the accident in March. The shop replaced a broken intake box, and that's all they touched in the engine bay. This summer is much hotter than the last, but I have not encountered the throttle lag as much since the accident.
All I've done different so far is open up the fang vents. I can drive all over the place in 90F temps with the A/C running, and I hardly encounter a situation where the car falls flat on its face while making a left turn or running across the street. Amazingly the car has been pretty pleasant to drive. What's interesting is that the oil temps hardly touch 220F as well. Even if it does, it literally cools down while sitting at the traffic light on a hot summer day. That's weird because I don't remember the oil temps doing that. Cheap mod... open up the fang vents. [shrugs] |
FWIW I ran with open fang vents and it didn't do jack for my problem.
