Once the ESP comes up the gear will not move very well again. It very hard to move.

Hi.

First, I have to explain this vehicle isn't offered in the US, so my technical information is very limited. However, I'll try my best to help.

When this happens, on most vehicles, engine power is reduced to avoid slipping. The idea that it will barely move, to me, sounds normal. Have you checked to see what is causing the stability control to actuate?

Often times it is wheel speed sensor. Here is a link that explains how to test a wheel speed sensor. All you will need is a digital multi meter.

Start with that and let me know what you find.

Take care,
Joe
