Hey fellas just wondered if anyone has delt with this before or know someone who has. I have an 06 Durango and I put a torsion bar lift on the front end leveling the vehicle, I also wrapped the oem rims with some 33 BFG tires. I am getting a premature traction control activation on light turns and speed bumps, quite often. The traction control light iluminates and the ABS kicks in and brakes the vehicle until the road is level. Dodge actually has a bulliten on this and they claim reprogramming the flash ECU will fix it. Had it done and it did not fix it. I know I can turn of the ESP button and this fixes the problem, but I loose my stability control and the vehicle gets sloppy. Can anyone give me some guidence on the subject. Dodge tells me it is the tires, but that is BS, I know plenty on Durangos with big tires and plenty of Rams with tires and lifts themselves. Comments appreciated, thanks much.

 

I did a torsion bar lift today, about 1 1/2. after doing this I put new rims and tires on.
I went to get it alligned and when I got it back the traction control stays ON and the ESP light stays on. the truck feels sloppy......

I need advice please........ I have a diablo predator and ran a diagnos.....no codes came up. Hmmmmmm

any thoughts??

 

Is your durango an AWD like mine, if so, that is the problem. For some reason the AWD has the issue, not the regular 4X4. I just drive with my esp off and that is the sacrafice I make for the nice look to front end being lifted with the 33's. What kind of lift, tires, rims etc?

 

I powder coated some cheap chrome wheels off ebay 22" wraped with 305 45 22 kumho est's.
I attached a pic

I have been doing research and apparently when putting the wheels on you might have moved or touched the ABS speed sensor. If this is not functioning, all the problems we are running into will cause the ABS light, traction control light, and the ESP/BAS light to come on. I am ordering the parts online now. I will let you know what happends after install.

I have the 5.7 Limted AWD. When I put it in 4wd it works but the lights all stay on.
When pressing the ESP button nothing happends to mine, all lights all the time. Well I guess I will see if replacing the sensors works.

 

same issue with my 07 - ive been trying to solve for over a year now - im subscribed and hope you guys have better lucj than I have!!

 

AWD as well? Same situation?....level kit, big tires etc?

 

Im just guessing but do you guys have the Diablo Predator?

The reason I asked, is because if you uninstall it and dont adjust tire size the lights will go away!!! And I am able to keep the modded tune in the engine....

The diablo Predator guys have not figured out the tire size thing yet.....

Your thoughts?

 

I have plans to install a super chip ecu program. That enables me to enter tire size etc. This will hopefully program the factory ecu to compensate for the mods on the truck. Therefore the traction control light will stop comming on....worth a shot.

 

I have the 87 Diablosport tune on my 07 with a TB lift (a inch maybe) with OEM tire size. Never had issues with ESP.
