it's not in any way a common problem so don't worry about that brad mate. remove the ABS wheel sensors and give them a clean up, see if this helps matters much! you might win a watch with that one so to speak :roll:
Have you got matched tyres on the front wheels. Same type and equal wear with the same pressures left/right. Differences could reduce grip on one side and make it easier to spin up a wheel causing the TC to cut in.
