So, I first noticed this when I was getting on an on ramp to the interstate. I was accelerating on the on ramp, which made a 90 degree curve and all of the sudden my slip light came on and I felt vdc cut power and tap the breaks. Well I thought I had maybe just taken the turn too fast and vdc decided I was gonna lose it, although I didn't think that I was pushing the car too hard and it felt like it still had alot of grip. So I didn't worry about it. But, in the past week or so this has happened 2 or 3 more times, all on some high speed curve, such as on the interstate. Now, the vdc doesn't really change the direction of the car or anything, it just decides to tap the breaks (maybe only on 1 or 2 wheels?) and the slip light comes on, eventhough I don't seem to be losing traction.

I'm not sure what to think, but I just got new rear tires about 2 weeks ago and had the car aligned as I had 350z h-techs installed about a month ago. I never noticed this slip light thing before the new tires/alignment... so I figure it might be something with that? The new tires are goodyear gs-d3's so its not like its just some junky tire losing traction.

So I'm sort of stumped. I figure I will give Lokey a call on wednesday when I get home (I'm out of town now), but any ideas or suggestions would be great.

Thanks

no one replied to this guy but same situation

very curious.

did you change tire size? maybe it is wheel speed sensor or something

nah... same tire size and all. Maybe lokey will know.

man that is crazy. I found another post stating the smae thing.

BlazinZ posted in it too.

did you have any brake work done?

found a third but in this one they state that it is due to the tire being too new and it corrected after a while

Kevin from KPT chimed in.

This kind of goes with my wheel speed sensor theory I remember faulty abs sensors doing this on the Lincoln LSs.

Ok the last one explains it... I did acutally do a quick search, but I obviously didn't look hard enough.

Thanks for the help

super. no worries on the road freaking out about the car... man I have been there and done that. It can be a stresser for sure.

ah, but this says the vdc light came on too... my vdc light didnt come on. I do agree that this sort of sounds like a wheel speed sensor problem, which is acutally the first thing I tried to look at.

Well the tries maybe have 100 miles on them now, if it keeps doing this in another 100 miles or so I'll call Lokey.

yeah I would wait it out for a little bit too unless it is really imposing itself..


safe travels

mine are still on since the track day.
i have no idea what the problem is.
