Power problems exiting corners in my Toyota Land Cruiser with no warning lights

Hello everyone, I have a 2012 Toyota Land Cruiser with 250,000 km and I'm experiencing a loss of power when exiting curves. However, there are no warning lights on and the computer doesn't show any faults. Additionally, I've noticed malfunctions in several vehicle systems. Has anyone faced a similar problem or have any idea what could be causing this? I would appreciate any advice or experience you can share. Thanks!

Check the air filter for any blockages or dirt, as a clogged air filter can restrict airflow and cause power loss. Let me know if this resolves the issue or if you need further assistance.

I replaced the air and fuel filters but there's still no change. It usually happens when I have the steering wheel turned, even when maneuvering to overtake.

Inspect the power steering system for any issues, such as low fluid levels or a failing power steering pump, as these can affect engine performance when turning. Let me know if you notice any changes or if you need further guidance.

Thank you, that could be very helpful! Previously, it was checked with an external computer and everything came out without defects... Could it be due to some sensor like the height sensor or the inclination sensor??

Check the throttle position sensor (TPS) for any faults, as it can affect engine response during turns. If the TPS is malfunctioning, it might not trigger a fault code but can still cause performance issues. Let me know if this helps or if you have more questions.
