i saw thread about r53, but mine is r56 MCSa, what is happening with it? speed senor too? any R56 owner has this issue yet? it just suddenly went on.....

 

Yup, search for szl here on the forum.

 

i took it to dealer today...they said i ain't the first one and it's because the computer is the 1st batch, the problem will araise if weather is too hot.....

they will change the computer they said...

 

Gentleman ~
Got the same problem (DSC/ABS/Low Tire Indicator Lights all coming on). I did a scan on the EMC ~ no hard code in memory (was told this is a soft code and isn't registered in EMC). I can reset the lights and do routinely. There doesn't seem to be any pattern; lights come on intermittantly. I've been told this is a "common" problem linked with a "Wheel Speed Sensor."
Do you agree that the Whee Speed sensor is the area to inspect for the problem?

Later,

Jack

 

Yes this is an old common problem with the R56, They replace the sterring sensor module and that fixes it. They did mine last year.

 

I had this condition for about 3K mile until I got sick of seeing it. I fixed mine by shooting all the brake dust crap out of the front calipers with brake cleaner. It's been about 7K since I cleaned them and I haven't seen it since. Mentioned it to the dealer at a service interval - he figured I solved it by cleaning the speed sensor but checked the OBC anyway......and got nuthing!

 

The same thing happened to me, but it was because my driver side sway bar end link snapped and took out some wires with it.

 

Thanks for the the reply but I've had no Sway Bar Issues. I do have two areas that could be visited (I'm clutching at Straws!)
A.Rear Camber Struts bushing have worn and I've got some negative camber compared to OEM specifications. I like the handling the car has but this affects tire ware. Don't know if that could have an affect on the DSC/ABS/Low Tire isse.
B.R/R inner Brake Pad wire retaining clip continues to be dislodging from the forward attaching rivet. When I perform the Brake Pad & Rotor replacement the pad came this way from the Manufacture. The Brake Pad Wire retaining clip stays attached to the inner caliper pluger but detaches periodically. I've attempted to reattach it to the retaining rivet but I'm concerned I'm going to damage to the Pad itself.
The lights can be "rest" but come on periodically and I've not been able to detect a pattern
Thanks, JBlake

 

One more thing to add; I've removed the Front & Rear Wheel Speeds Sensors and still the problem periodically. The lights have to be manually reset and will not reset themselves.
Do you have a method of identifying a defective wheel speed indicator or do you just start "Replacing Parts?"

the dealer doesn't have the computer last time, and arrange to change it in the coming week...they said the first batch of the computer has this issue...it happens to all just depends on when will it appear.... it is not the wheel senor they claimed...
