This Happened twice. Once yesterday on same ramp and today again. Did a little pull from 3rd gear onto the freeway and on the ramp is like a slight dip so the car drops down a little and you feel it in the suspension obviously. But with my foot down the car pulls nice, however once I hit over that dip in the road the car felt like it cut power or acceleration for like .4 seconds, a light flashed super quick on the dash and then continued accelerating/pulling after normally. Anybody experience this? I couldn’t see what the light was because it was extremely quick. Only happens whenever I go over that dip. Car is in normal mode. I haven’t attempted in sport.

As my childhood doctor would say, don't drive over the dip so fast. ?

I'd complain that jumping down from the 4th stair step made me dizzy or whatever, her doctorly conclusion was to have me jump from 3rd one instead ?

And possibly saving your bacon. Immediately after the dip your suspension will unload and you lose a ton of downforce on the tires. If you are still accelerating hard when that happens and the TCS doesn’t pull the power you could very well spin the car when the rear tires break traction because the rear was suddenly unloaded while you have your foot in it. Be thankful for the nannies we have today…

Yikes this is a concerning thread. Please familiarize yourself with the features of the incredibly powerful and potentially dangerous machine you purchased.
