I don't mind the loss of ABS as the Formula car I drive doesn't have it, so it is just normal lol.

Also, I hate not being able to stop when one or two wheels is on something slippery, but the other ones are fine. My general experience is that if you are cornering on something slippery, even if you do have ABS, punching the brakes will still send you careening sideways. Better to just pay attention, and control it yourself, one less element to introduce unpredictable variation into your driving.

I agree.

Hello all,
Having problems with my 2012 dodge 3500 diesel. Traction control and ABS are engaging intermittently on dry pavement. ABS seems more frequent when making a slight left hand turn and applying the brakes, I get the pulse in the brake peddle for a few seconds and than it is back to normal. Traction control light comes on when trying to accelerate and the power is derated. Just wondering if anyone has come across this and what they did to fix it.
Thanks in advance
