hi folks
needing so help again
i have a d3 2.7 se 2006
i had a recent engine change which i think went well
on driving the check brake pad lights is on took it back and a wire was reconnected job done
but at same time the traction control was playing and still is i thought it was all connected together
but it seems not.
so now when i turn right especially a roundabout about 20mph +or- front wheels shudder ,sounds like scraping noise back slides out a bit and dash traction controllight comes on sometimes flashes
so anyone any ideas
only thing i know is it could be expensive
oh and forgot to say had all bushes replaced about 4 months ago

IIRC ... ride-height sensor can cause this. car thinks you've lifted a wheel so DSC kicks in to stop you tipping over. .

there is a DSC button on the center dash. Press that to turn it off. And see if that stops it.
Steering angle sensor may require calibration.

Can also be worn suspension components or alignment out that makes DSC kick in.

Low tyre pressure in one tyre can do that. Cheapest thing to check!

so eventually got round to trying the faults you guys mentioned
with no luck i have however found a rear brake word down to metal dont ask me why the sensor didnt work.
anyway would that effect the dsc? i will be ordering pads and discs for rear to change
