Power cut off with ESC off?

Do you guys experience the power cut off between 1-2 gear when pedal to metal ?
My ESC was completed off at that time.
Is there anyway i can complete turn that traction control off. This is embarrassing if try to race someone and the car bog out. Thank you.

That's called a rev limiter. Learn to manually shift it.

Get a tune..................

then, learn to turn the EPS completely off. you need to go keep going past the EPS stating "sport mode". hold the EPS button down until the display states ESP "OFF". then you will be in full control of the vehicle, as a rear wheel drive car.

if you are having "bog" issues. just know that our shift patterns need to be a couple hundred RPM's sooner then you want your shifts to be. Basically, shift a few hairs before you "think" that you need to shift. the electronic transmission needs a lag time to catch up to where you want it to be.

Really?


Why even post if you can't read? The guy has a tune, look at the sig. He said he has ESP off Mr Tips.

If you hammer it in first, the tranny can't keep up with the rpm in 1st gear sometimes and will bounce it off the rev limiter.. Makes it feel like you hit the brakes.

Gotta start using manual mode.

Thank you for relay guys.
Did try manual mode with ESP OFF and it does take care off that Cut Off power.

Ummmm..............do you even read jackass??

I answered his question, and it solved his problem. WOW!!

It had ZERO to do with the rev limiter. Don't be so quick to jump on someones a$$! Yes, I did miss his sig, but completely read, understood his query, and helped him with his problem. Seems like you owe me an apology. We are here to help each other, but I guess you are just a bada$$ and wanted to "school" me. When in fact, I helped the OP!!

Did you really not have ESP off or you had it in sport mode and it wasn't completely off??
