Service Traction Control and Stabilitrak on WOT
Hi guys,
Every time I go WOT I get a Service Traction Control and Stabilitrak notification on the dash and both, the traction and ABS light stay on. It goes away when I shut the car off and start it again. When this happens, gear shifting goes out of whack and it feels like something is holding back the power (limp mode??)
Any ideas on what this could be?
Appreciated!

It is a limp mode what year...(nvm i went back and got that lol!!) need to find out what the codes are that its throwing could be something in the tune, or with the throttle body, are you getting an engine light at all?? Basically limp mode locks you out of certain gears and maxes out line pressures!!!!

What do you mean by "gear shifting goes out of wack"?
I had similar issues, trans would kick out of gear, door locks cycle, traction control lights, etc. Turned out to be the positive lead from starter to batter shorting out on the header and causing all kinds of problems.

Was traction control turned off in the tune? If not, once traction control is triggered, it can pull spark, fuel, etc.

I have disabled traction control and ABS manually. I'm not sure if it's off in the tune.
