Just thought id chime in my Vdc kicks in alot less since i changed to mpss all round compared to the original re050. But what was really strange was some roads where the vdc kicks in on my mpss, when i turn off vdc driving exactly the same revs, gear steering angle the tyres dont spin at all, I think the Vdc is overprotective sometimes. I also tried standing start 0-60 with the new tyres and vdc kicked in on 2nd, but with it turned off wot shifting into second the tyres didnt spin at all just gripped and went, does this mean my vdc is overcautious or its settings are messed because of new tyre sizes?

like all the systems VDC ABS etc they are over cautious, they will kick in when they "think" its about to go where most of the time theres plenty left before any locking up or slippage.

Hi guys,

I have just swapped my tyres from MPSS (fairly worn) to Bridgestone RE050 on the rear and all of a sudden my traction control seems to kick in and dab the brakes at like 50/60 on B roads. It never did this before, also, seems too happen more often when I'm on cruise control

 

All very annoying! Amy help would be great

 

cheers

Dan

just turn off the traction control and get to know how the car reacts.

YESSS just popped the plastics off under the wheel and the button was still on the wire, happy days, lets go sliding.

Are you sure its not just been poked inside the dash

think its just the plug behind the dash

Preowned in stock and good to go same/next day if required.

 

Alex.

ill have another look behind teh dash and see if its in there, how much delivered to ireland if its gone?

Did Richard Hammond have your car? Seem to remember he pushed the ESP button through the dash on top gear

its possible lol

i think he found it behind the dash earlier

couldnt grab teh wire to see fully but ill look again now

as the title reads reallt, looking for the traction control button, someone seems to have nicked mine or taken it out at some stage for some reason. anyone got one layin about??

Suits I had my old skyline done that colour.loved it.

Anthracite on black hell yeah. Black on black cheapens the look IMO. Nice rays bronze works too although I dont like bronze wheels at all.

ill have a red when is funds needed?

Dont know tbh. Wont have mine for 2 weeks. But if not just wire it to the interior light.

Piece of **** to do.

Halfords do a LED strip that you can wire up to the door light or the interior light which ever suits and they stick on behind the handle.

Cheap enough to buy too and only 2 wires

On it like a stripper on a punter.

So whens the next batch being done on these?? Red would go down well here. Samco red or bright red like the swatch would be what id want.

Well just joined up mates with wolfie if he's using that username on here. Just went out today and dropped a deposit on an 04 zed so will be about here lurking for a bit.
