I'll set the scene... Driving along a country road, dry conditions, car in good condition with new tyres and theres a motorist infront doing 40 mph, what would you do? Thats right, so im overtaking (car still in fifth gear) and the traction control comes on and goes totally crazy! Needless to say i made for the middle pedal right quick and pulled back in behind grandma! 
The thing which is puzzling me most is that the wheels werent even losing traction when the traction control butted-in. notsure.gif
Since then its happened a few more times, and in 3rd and 4th gears too but only when accelerating and I swear that the wheels are not losing traction! dunno..
Could it be a clutch or diff problem or possibly something more sinister such as ecu?
P.S:
It may be coincedence but its only happened since the new front tyres were put on, the bloke tried losening a track rod end with a welding torch as they were siezed solid but gave up and didnt bother trying the other side (getting replaced thurs) but i was hovering over him like a hawk and he didnt go near the abs wiring. Heat damage to the abs sensor maybe? Would tech 2 show this up?
Anyway, any help would be much appreciated cheers..
