Default Mechanical problem

hope this is the right forum to ask this.. not an S issue..

Pontiac Bonneville SSEI..95

problem.. with traction control activated, it started acting as it were loosing traction from a stop, dry pavement.. more so in hot temperatures..

I used to turn off the traction control to avoid the problem..

but now it's started doing it with traction control off.. first with hard excelleration and now with light to moderate.. (try to excellerate from a stop, and hear almost a grinding type noise, almost like it was loosing traction and stopped the wheels from spinning)

have not taken it in yet.. would like to get some opinions first... so I know what to expect..

thanks for any help.. CV joints..? sensors..? ABS system..?
