I'll go WAY out on a limb with the lack of oomph because I've experienced it in heavy rain. Was there any slush/snow/ice on the that incline?

I have felt in the VSC what I can best describe as an integration function. If enough short periods of wheel slippage are detected within some period of time like 10-30 seconds, it will secretly pull throttle.

I'm pretty comfortable with water. When I cross enough little puddles going fast enough to induce teeny bits of hydroplane, VSC gets passive-aggressive. Without any other indication the car slows down no matter how much I mash the gas pedal. It also takes a while for the condition to clear itself. Super annoying.

Does that sound plausible in your situation?
