Hey guys i was driving up a steep incline at my school and then while making a right turn into the parking garage (which is also a steep incline and smooth surface) my car wouldnt go up the hill...it just would rev and the wheels wouldn't spin and it was making a weird grinding noise. i put it in reverse and then drive again and gave it some more gas and it finally went up. the traction light came on and it sounded like the gears were grinding or something when i finally made it up the parking garage entrance. Is this normal and just the traction control kicking in?
