    Hi, have my car a year, 2005 612, had it commissioned through supercaritalia, Higgins hill. Did a great job, fixed lots a faults as car was laid up for many years. One persistent problem, if I come out of drive at an angle, and wheels spin, or if I accelerate from standstill too hard, dash board lights up, transmission, suspension, abs. Any ideas?

    It could be so many things- trying to guess without reading the codes is a bit pointless.

    My only clue is that it’s error on the abs/stability control side. ABS and stability control are part of the same integrated ecu, and if a fault is encountered there, it caused the module to shut down. The suspension fault then will probably be due to a lack of communication with the ABS ecu.

    Cheapest code reader that will talk to all modules is the Autel AP200. For £50, it’s an essential piece of kit IMO.

    It seems to me P32 of your owners manual suggests those three together imply total brake failure !

    At least that night be the first place to start looking for a code however in the two cases you describe the trigger seems to be an unusual increase or decrease in the weighting on at least one wheel so perhaps a connection to a sensor on the suspension and/or shock is just a bit iffy

    Thank you for the comments, much appreciated, I thought guessed that
    thank you very much for taking the time to consider the problem and reply, I thought alright that this would be a good time to put my problem out there, It’s good to have a bit of understanding of the possible causation,

    Brakes etc all work normal during the event, had everything replaced or rebuild so hope not there. Fault resets soon as turn the engine on and off. Unequal weight under acceleration has a ring of possibility to it, many thanks.
