just wondering if you could put my mind at rest. Whilst driving in the snow I had to gun the throttle to get up a hill. The dsc was full off however I think the brakes have overheated and damaged the rear break pad sensors bringing the abs, dsc and flat tire indicator on. This has happened once before in a similar situation and a simple brake pad replacement solved the problem. The only thing is I don't remember if the tire indicator came on last time. A friend who is a mechanic is ordering some new pads for me so I'm hoping it's just the same thing again.

Has anyone else had this problem. He has mentioned something about a TJE which is just making me think that it maybe something more. Someone put my mind at rest.


Thanks for any advise/help

the dsc was fully off, held the button in so both lights come on.
anyway I drove 50 yards now the road and everything is back to normal. I can only assume that the cars computer had a malfunction ??
