DSC and handbrake light on orange occasionally

[danr55]

Hi all

Have had they DSC and Handbrake light come on at the same time in orange. They have both since gone out, come back, and gone out twice in the last couple of days.

Any ideas?

Am seeing a specialist this week for an oil change so will get a full diagnostic check if needs be. Hopefully its a dodgy sensor or something

any limp mode or restricted throttle?

nope, none at all...

Mine has the same fault, its the DSC sensor on the master cylinder. Part is about £75 plus fitting

Perfect, thankyou! Will get it sorted. Any idea how much fitting should be/how big a job it is?

have you checked your brake fluid level???

I've not, but the car had brake fluid changed shortly before I took delivery so I would assume it's OK. Will check this also, could this cause these lights to come on?

[shane@mbtech]

not 100% sure on the csl but on many other models yes it can put lights on.

just check it, very very simple to check

as I'd like the car to have an oil change (not that it really needs it just yet) I have booked it in for oil change, geometry setup and complete checkover with a CSL specialist. Will be interesting to see what they pinpoint. Want 100% confidence so I can get a trackday booked. :smokin:

Not sure what that could be Dan, possibly low brake fluid level, Your going to the right place though, they race csl's so your in safe hands, a few very small teething problems that is all i'm sure :)
