Default Re: BAS/ESP light om

The BAS ESP light will turn off when the car is restarted but will come back on shortly after driving. When getting on the gas to pass or enter into traffic.

When the BAS ESP light comes on there is pretty much no passing power as if throttle is opening 10% I have my resonator removed too and it's whisper quiet when this happens. The transmission also hesitates to upshift when the light is displayed. Acceleration is slow till 5,000rpms then on the next upshift it will take off like a rocket throughout the whole rev range. As if it's going into some mode. Is any of this familiar?

OBD codes? Anythig else you did besides replacing the battery? Look up resetting the BAS/ESP procedure (turning the steering wheel full left then full right?). Come back with any codes you have, that might help.
