Wtf I can't park on my driveway
Ok I got my front lowered a bit more and now that I try to angle my car to park on the driveway the traction sensor goes off and my car slips back everytime I try to push on the pedal. It wouldn't even go forward and the traction just keeps throwing off. Wtf?
I tried putting it on ect power mode and still does the same thing

Getting a head start and gun it!! Haha
But really, sounds like one of your tires is being lifted up (maybe not off the ground but enough weight is being distributed to your other wheels that the sensor thinks you lost traction). Try a different angle not as severe? If you only have the one approach angle then I don't know what to say
but I also thought TC wouldn't kill power to your other wheels... Hmm ?

This is why I haven't lower my car ... though I'm really considering the F-Sport springs. I like a lowered car look, but doing that you don't just get the the lowered-car look, you also get the lowered-car driving experience where your car can no longer go in forward :-)
lol, you know, this should be the new bar for when your car is low enough. It sets off traction control because the tires are no longer making contact with the road

How low are you off the ground and why would you lower your car if you have an incline. I loved having my 300 slammed but my neighborhood has speed bumps now. Like, the "scrape your whole kit" kind. Have to reevaluate my definition of flush lol

one of your wheels are off the ground causing it to slip cz of the incline maybe. this happens to me at work when i tried to enter the ramp. either take a diff angle or gun it a little with a angle.

Had this same problem when I lowered my car
The back wheel is lifting off the ground and it should be spinning wildly since it's not touching anything. Probaly caused by a high driveway
My passenger rear was the one that was lifting up so what I did was go on my driveway at an angle where my passenger side wheels were on first, backup, get my driver side front wheel on, backup and I was able to get in
