I agree its the nannies. You're probably losing traction and don't realize it. I've had my traction control kick in at 70 mph. If you're flooring it and the road isn't smooth, sometimes the engine will back off and even apply brakes. This happens more as it gets colder and the tires have less traction. I doubt anything is wrong.

Go to the dealership asap! Have them inspect that's what a warranty is for.

double tap the traction control button to turn everything off and then see what happens

70mph drop into 3rd and let match bring you to 3800rpm then add a little throttle to get to 4500 then dump the clutch these cars pull hard, even with traction control on you can watch it ping all the way till you hit 4th at 6200 |
