Help me
I have a 08 z06
My car started doing this weird thing today.
It drives perfectly fine
But everytime I come to a stop
It locks up and feels like I m slamming on the breaks hard.
Nothing comes on the dash
No codes or abs light
I turned off the traction control but still does the same thing.
And while taking off from a red light
It seems like something is holding me back and have to rev up a lot in order for me to drive again.
Once It takes off
It drives smooth n perfect.
And before it locks up when I m slowing down
It makes some clicking noise
anyone ever got this issue ?
It seems like the tranny but not sure
Thanks for any help or suggestion

Completely different mechanicals here but FWIW, I had a V8 Auto 56 Plymouth in the 60s and when I let off the gas the rear end began to lock up. If I could maintain the forward (torque)? by pressing on the gas to combat the slowdown, I could keep the rear wheels from a full lockup. So, differential problem maybe? Good luck!
