Thanks!

Ive seen it happen a few times, but it will usually throw a code. Anything showing up when you pull codes?

This happened 1 time to me. I peeled out on a cold stop and the car started to shutter. Thankfully, I pulled over ,turned the car off a minute and she went back to normal . This is why I only drive in the "COMPETITIVE MODE" anymore:duel: :coffeetime:

Isn't this an issue with the wheels and their size?

By competitive mode do you mean with the active handling engaged? or are there other settings?

I have seen this problem several times when I was work @ dealership. It doesn't set codes cause computer doesn't see anything wrong. Many techs will not figure this one out due to its intermitte malfunction. The steering wheel position sensor is spiking. You can see it on the Tech 2 but you really have to watch cause it happens fast. It will also disengage the curise if it is active.

That's interesting. I haven't had much in the way of AH issues, but I have had the cruise disengage. There is a freeway connector ramp on my commute that I usually take with my cruise set at 80mph. About half the time the cruise will disengage when I go over the bumpy portion of the turn. I wonder if it's related or just the cruise control not liking the bumps?
