DSC issues

04 MCS 37K , lately i have been having issues of the DSC activating once i restart the car after its warm and been sitting just a bit, when i drive away it kicks in a limits the accelerator. on a cold motor start this issue doesnt happen, it only seems to happen when i hope back in a drive after i had been driving it. any thoughts?

Tell a little more. What happens that you believe the DSC to be activated (light, etc)? Does it eventually get better after driving a bit, or only resolves after full cooldown?

when i go out first thing and drive i have no issues, now if i get to some place, turn off the motor and then get back in shortly fire up and head down the road, i often times will get the indicator light kicking on and it cutting the throttle off till it thinks im not out of control.

if i hope in and deactivate the DSC i have no issues at all, but if i forget it can get me in trouble when try to drive.
