Did you ever have VDC kick in but not see the light? I've been searching around to see if it continues flashing after it interferes for a specific amount of time or what. Can't find any info.

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.

I removed the fuse...

I'm not proposing that VDC is the culprit for the throttle delay issue, if that is what you mean.

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.

I also had this one happen... i was on a slight uphill - needing to merge out onto a road with speedy traffic... disappointing..
