Traction control issue from a stop

I'm having a intermittent problem on my 05 Suburban 1500 4x4 when leaving from a stop. The traction control will activate and leave me wondering if engine power will return. I also have a strange noise from the front end, I believe, that is similar to the anti-skid doing a self check like my 93 Sub did. This noise is at low speeds in drive. Not all the time though.

I'm looking at where to begin to trouble shoot. Wheel sensors? Control box under seat?

Anyone heard of a recall in the works for this problem?

Thanks

Needs to be put on a ABS/transmission capable scanner and checked for codes and read out speed sensors for matching right wheel speed.
Post back any codes.

Not sure if the scanner I have access to is able to read trans/ABS codes. Will need to check.

Needs to read codes and also data to.
You need to check wheel speed sensors for matching and no drop outs.
