there is some lag while downshifting but i thought it had been turbo lag been driving in sport mode lately and after i changed my tires everytime i turned off dynamic ttraction control it said dsc limited
also most of electrical issues have been popping up over the few months my daytime running lamps my reverse lights lcd restarts sometimes

sounds like battery issues.

Sounds like possible DSC module failure for your current lights. Can you read faults?

Could be DSC or it could be the alternator. I would check the alternator first it very well could be the voltage regulator going out on the alternator
