Hi all ....long time no see, right.... on the 08 plate 2.7.........normal (for me) driving on twisty bits or roundabouts getting a noise and judder that feels like the ABS is activating and the yellow triangle with the circular arrow round it coming up on the dash, just plugged it in and no codes are stored ??? Anyone experienced this or got any pointers ??

It's just dawned on me that the symbol is for the DSC activating ! 08 2.7 RRS "S"

I think you need to remember your not on the zx but you are in a 2.7 ton car

Depends how quick you were travelling, wouldn't expect the DSC to kick in under normal driving.

Was the road slippery/muddy?

Uneven tyre wear can cause this or 1 or more bald tyres.

Have to admit that has crossed my mind...... the rears are a little worn on the inside edges........they've done 33k so not bad ! 08 2.7 RRS "S"

Hi Andy,

Have you managed to sort this? I seem to have the same issue but it only started after fitting a new set of wheels and tyres.
Thanks,
Dave.

No havent been near the car, been using the 110 due to the inclement weather we are exoeriencing !

If its down to worn tyres then it must be diff wind up causing the slippage. 08 2.7 RRS "S"

Check tyre pressures first then get rear sus bushes checked for play.. 2008 G4 RRSport TDV8 current
2009 TDCi 90 current
2018 Discovery 5 HSE lux current
1994 Dakar current

It doesnt do it with DSC turned off  08 2.7 RRS "S"

Has it had any suspension work, or a wheel alignment done recently?

Could be as simple as the steering angle sensor, needing a calibration.

HI,
I think I may be getting somewhere with my issue at last. The car is currently at the local main dealer for the brake safety recall so I asked them to check the DSC / wheels issue out again for me. I have swapped back to the original set of wheels and tyres and the fault is still there so that's good news I guess. They called me this afternoon saying that they have ran various checks and now say that the steering sensor is faulty and is causing the fault after all. They then quoted me £935.00 to replace the entire steering column as the sensor has become "unbonded" and cannot be repaired. I have a warranty on the car but not with LR so I now have check if this is covered but I am thinking there must be a cheaper way of getting this sorted than a new column surely...am I right?

Thanks,
Dave.

Thats definately NOT good news !!!!! 08 2.7 RRS "S"
