Wheel slip sensor is killing the throttle

IIRC, a low brake fluid level can cause these symptoms. Make sure the reservoir is filled to the full line.

First question I would ask is whether the car is actually cutting throttle power or if the dash light is simply lighting up. Low brake fluid will typically cause the BRAKE (for the e-brake) and SLIP lights to illuminate - normally this occurs under acceleration or braking as the fluid sloshes back and forth in the reservoir. But this issue does not actually interfere with the throttle.

IIRC the yaw sensor doesn’t cut the throttle, it applies the back brakes. I just replaced the back brake pads at 35,000 miles due to (I think) this. Front pads are still at 60 %.

It certainly feels like it’s cutting the throttle, but it’s not. Especially if you have the TC off.
