Hi All,

Just a quick one, on a few occasions when putting my foot down in the car the dsc light comes on and the power is cut so i lose speed. If I let off and re apply the power the dsc still overrides my throttle, if I turn the button off I regain power.

I dont thrash it when this happens and to be honest it happens sometimes when im putting my foot down and sometimes when im just slowly driving along.

Not so long ago I had front tyres on car changed and rear ones tracked and balanced is there a chance something could of been disturbed?

Anyone have any ideas on the problem?

thank you in advance to any replies !

Cheers
Chris

 

are you letting the car warm up?

 

Yeah sometimes i am in the car an hour then ill put my foot down and it cuts in for no reason?

 

How many miles are on your car?

 

If your front and rear tires are vastly different in diameter..and circumference...it may be thinking the wheels are spinning when they are not

 

Thats why you should always replace all the tires not just 2 at a time

 

Ah ok yeah ill change the other two then, I got 53k on my clock the car is in perfect cond, I was just wondering if it could be something more sinister and expensive lol.

Cheers for your replies

 

It could be a bad sensor.

 

is that expensive? if it needs doing its not a prob but im thinking of buying something new so not to keen to spend lots
