could be a bad sensor for esp. using the brakes to straighten the car. get a dealer to look for codes.

common for the 98's and 99's. It's in the transfer case. What i have heard is there is nothing you can do. Something with how the transfer case delivers the power to the front and the rear wheels. Mine does the same thing. Also i have heard nothing bad can happen from it. But lets see what other people write on here.

you should of said something when you were here... we could of done donuts on the snow... that would of taken care of any issues...
on another note I think this was a common problem with the early W163s...
