X5 E70 2010 ESP issue

[youngricharduk]

I have an issue with my x5 that has started recently, when you put your toe down (even in the dry) the traction control light comes on and cuts full power. You can tootle about without noticing but if say you go to overtake etc it can really be quite dangerous. I've have it into the garage who hooked it up to the diagnostics but no fault was thrown up. He mentioned it might need a new wheel bearing but how would you figure out which one without replacing them all? Does anyone have any ideas? My theory it would just be a dodgy sensor would have obviously been too easy.

TDLR; ESP cuts in even when no chance wheels slipping.

Wheel bearing wise..... I’ve not worked on BMW, but on our cars at work, I can read live data from the ABS module, for my speed sensor outputs/speeds.

Might be worth looking into other causes of ESP intervention, throttle position, steering angle etc

Any noticeable tread difference between front and rear tyres ?
