YAW, it sucks hard.
This is a compounding problem, one day I was driving home and i took a light dip to the left and my doors unlocked. I thought It was some radio freq disruption, made a mental note since it was hard to come up with any real case.
Then today driving home my ESP malfunction came on after a bump in the road, and the car went into limp mode. No other warning lights,just the error message.
Combined with my low throttle jerks I started putting the pieces together, after doing some research it's either the pedal sensor or the YAW sensor or a combination of both.
I couldn't replicate the error again to get the error code up to read it, so I just ordered a used YAW sensor anyway since it's not much.
Grrr.

Ok, really newbie question: how do I properly check a battery for condition at home?
Might be the cause of some of my electrical gremlins too

You can check the voltage on the comand. There is a post on it. Its something along the lines of AUX then 1+3 mute together brings up back door menu.

Thanks,
. Good point on the battery, I've overlooked it because I don't really have much electrical symptoms at the moment. I'll give it a check.

Checked battery is fine. After years of working with cars I didnt give me signs it was a battery issue. but ruled it out anyway. YAW/pedal sensor on the way!
