Bentley Turbo R
Discussion
I have a Bentley Turbo R 1997 model that I believe has traction control. The warning light on the information panel tells me there is a 'trac fault' Any idease what this may be and how it can be rectified.
When the car turns a tight circle there is a definate scrubbing of rear tyres.

Thanks Paul, I understand that, however the indicator on the information panel tells me there is a track fault and the track button on the console does not appear to do anything. I am therefore coming to the conlusion that it is some form of electrical fault, switch, relay, solenoid or similar. What do you think?

I have got no further with this, however if it were the throttle limiting system, would the system know this is affecting the traction control and therefore post the warning on the dash at all times, would this not simply appear when traction control was required. I also believe it is more than traction control, as mentioned in my initial posting it appears to be limited slip in that the diff is partially locked, is it not more likely to be a switch, solenoid or relay problem?
As previously mentioned this is the 6.75 litre engine.

Thanks Guys, I have not resolved the traction control problem. I am more than ever convinced the car is fitted with a diff lock or similar, when turning tightly yo can tell one or other rear wheel is scrubbing. When the car is jacked up and in park you cannot turn either rear wheel, if the diff were not locked one wheel would be free at all times.
I also do not think it is the swith, if it were it would simply tell me the diff was locked, but the fact that it tells me there is a track fault means it knows something is not working correctly.
