Anyone got any idea what the most likely causes for traction control not working...

Have a look at all the small rubber piping running in & out of the throttle body (on the top side of it.) Sometime they can block up or crack. Part from that don't know much more about it :(

And...

Thanks Bennoz, will have a look at that. Should have asked this before too.

Is the diagnostic tool for this stuff the same one as for the ECU???. I cant remember what it was called now (MUII??? or something - saw in another post).

I guess I will need to find someone with one of these to pull out any error codes that may be in the TCL ECU.

The TCL computer is easily located behind the stereo... so if yyouve done any stereo modifications etc maybe a wires popped out???

And Bennoz wins a prize.....

One of the pipes on the throttle body had come off. Im not sure if that is the only issue yet, but it certainly was one of them. Some of the pipes a little perished, might replace them all
