Terrain response problem locking rear wheeel

Hi guys

My 2007 tdv8 has become a nightmare and laughing stock among freinds. When driving in wet slidey fields the terrain response decides to jam the N/s rear wheel on for no reason. I am on road tyres but traveling fine until the wheel jams on then im stuck.

Friends in disco 3's and P38 just drive by laughing. Doesn't matter what programme i select or if im in high or low range.

Any ideas??

Thanks

Have you tried turning off the DSC? 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

Turning the DSC off makes know difference. still makes the ns rear wheel lock. Think the next option is go for a diognostic test as there are no warning on the dash.

It does sound like a sensor somewhere is giving a weird output and the system is trying to compensate for a non-existent situation. Perhaps the wheel speed sensor is failing and the TC thinks the wheel is spinning up when it isn't so it applies the brake to that wheel to slow it down. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders

As the braking system doesn't have ability to apply one brake at a time as far as I know, sounds more like a diff problem but a read of fault codes may show up a fault code relating to wheel speed that goes to TC. DSC on these cara never fully switches off in certain modes but read of owners manual should show what does what and when. 2x TDV6. SE and HSE. Both returned to sender with issues👀
TDV8 Sport HSE...... Gone. Loved it but it didn't love me!!

When activated by the traction control system, yes it does.

Very true - its the feature, independant control of each wheel speed...that also part of HDC and TC...otherwise it wouldnt work properly Mike
