Hi Everyone. This forum has been a great help already.  
 

have an issue with 3 series 2005 1.8 i ES 

when turning at roundabouts the car looses power and sort of misfires. I have looked ones it up and I think it’s a traction control issue , to do with ABS sensors.  I got a friend to plug the car in but no ABS sensor fault is showing ? 

is it because the car is to old to show these issues ? 
 

how do I know which sensor it is ? There seem to be 4 of them 2 front and 2 back 

 

Any info or guidance on this would be extremely helpful. Trying to get my sons car back on the road asap.  
 

thanks a lot 

steve

morning Steve 

I thought I had answered this but can't any see it anywhere !! Must be getting old 😅

If the issue is surfacing on turning I would check the engine bay very carefully for chaffed wires in the engine looms to the Coil Packs and Injectors. Also check the engine mounts and earth straps

Good Luck

Dave
