breaks when making sharp turns
I lifted my '02 g463 about 3" and added 35's. so now when im driving making sharp turns, it does a scary quick brake check automatically. usually happens when going above the 40 mph range. before it does this, it shows a warning sign on the cluster. anyone know what this feature is called and how to disable it? i got to go really slow to avoid it.

Don’t know of a fix but sounds like the traction control kicking in due to the wheel speed sensor reading oddly or a little slip.

It's your TCS kicking in because of your larger tires. The computer is seeing much higher than expected values based on the larger tire rolling diameter.
Lots of threads about this but the only real fix is to have your expected tire size changed by a MB Star system. You'll have to ask around to find someone who can do it for you, or purchase the MB Star system with the correct software.
