traction control problem?
I have just bought a 2003 V-6 auto and I have found that this control turns on at about 15000 rpm untill i reach 20000, and them the motor bogs down not allowing the tires to turn faster then 20000 rpm. is there a limiter in line, and if so how do you bypass it,{burnouts with only 1 tire sucks} when traction control is turned off {via button on dash}the right side tire is allowed to spin to about red line.

Okay, I sure hope you mean 1500rpm and 2000rpm, rather than 15000 and 20000... and it isn't the rpm that will set off the trac control, it is tire slip.
And yes the traction control tries to stop the wheels from spinning and make it sound like the engine is bogging down. If you want to bypass it, just press the Trac. Ctrl. button. As for doing burnouts with more than one tire - that has nothing to do with traction control, you need to buy a limited slip differential, i think it is about 250$ or so, and get that installed. But if you buy a LSD, you might as well get gears (4.10s are what most guys with autos get) at the same time, so that you don't need to pay for the same installation twice. |

It sure was. I have it on mine and it took a lot of getting used to driving my car with ABS and trac control, when my previous vehicle was a 95 windstar with no abs or sway bar...
