Will come on for a split sec. Between 1st and 2nd. But if the sequential shift is used, the traction control seems to work overtime. Maybe I am holding it in the grears for too long? Usually happens if held over 4,500 revs.

Ford_Power Member 798 Member For: 23y 6m 4d Posted 18/06/03 03:12 AM Posted 18/06/03 03:12 AM I think its due to the fact that in normal auto mode, the engine torque is cut precisely at the gearchange point so as to have a smooth gearchange with little load on the transmission. When in sequential shift mode, perhaps the torque cut is not as much (as obviously the driver wants "sportY" performance if he/she is using SSS mode anyway.l8rRoss
