yellow light (ESP) and strange behavior turning left
Hello, I have an Xtype 3.0 from 2007 and im suffering a very strange and dangerous behavior. This only happens when turning left.
Yellow light in dashboard flashes or light up and in the best cases i only have a loss of power. But sometimes the car brakes itself or i can hear ABS system (i think) doing things.
First time was years ago but it was very infrequent. Now its every day and sometimes i think the cars losses some grip when the system brakes without any reason.
Thanks!

I would be questioning your front wheel bearings. You probably have 1 that is severely worn and it is causing it to slide far enough away that it is causing a wheel speed sensor to not see it any more. This makes the car think the wheel is not spinning for whatever reason and will cause the ABS to kick in and attempt to release the braking on that wheel. A simple kick of the top of the front tires should tell you which tire has the back wheel bearing. You will see the tire move a lot and the car barely move.
