Where do you live?

Hi Rich,
Live inner Melbourne suburbs. Dealer is nearby, so would get them to check first. have been having my cars serviced with these guys since 1998, so I have been happy with service over the years.

Cheers,

I'm wondering if we had this problem with our RRS - the DSC would keep kicking in when pushing even mildly into tight bends, and more so when the car was loaded. Granted the lower control arms needed replacing but the recurring code was related to the Yaw sensor and the tyres that came on the car were so cheap and dodgy no-one had ever heard of them.

Can Yaw sensors fail intermittently or be over sensitive somehow? Anyone know what it costs to replace it/them?
