well. like 5 days ago i was out with friends and i turned my vdc off for the first time and was doing donuts and stuff. And right after i stopped i looked at my navi and it said vdc malfunction or something and it wouldnt let me turn me vdc back on and it said slip. well i turned off my car let it sit a minute and then turned it back on and everything was fine and i just turned my vdc back on.

Well i was driving today and about 2 mins from my house i was driving up the hill towards my house and i was in 4th, and going up the hill then it felt weird and i realized i was losing power like my engine bogged down and i looked at the navi and it send malfunction. vdc malfunction, and the service engine soon light was on too. i pulled over because i couldnt make it up the hill. tried going up the hill again same thing. i ended up reversing down the hill and parking on a flat area.

i dont know what to do right now i just walked up to my house. Does anyway have any clue or advice??? anyone have the same thing happen and how do i fix it?

I really dont know what to do i need help ASAP

^ What he said about battery....it resets ecu and any fault codes I think too.

My G did that too, but I drove it around, the lights finally stayed off after ~ two restarts. No power mine never did that. Sounds like it when into limp mode.

so heres the news. I got it towed to the dealership the tow was covered under warranty. They said that my throttle body sensor had gone out and that it was covered under warranty and that i got a new throttle body. my G is a 04 with 50k miles on it.


no more donuts for me and i think my clutch is going out.

I had that exact same problem in my 03 last year.. VDC and check engine light both on. Resetting the ECU only worked for 3 days and then it totally died. It was also a throttle body sensor problem.. but mine was at 67,000 so it's out of warranty, and costed me $600
