Does anyone know why my low trac light comes on when i go above 70. It always comes on when i go above 70, I cant figure it out, any opinions would be helpful. It will come on sometimes when i punch the gas also.

as far as when you are above 70 i can't say, but when you punch it, the traction control systems catchs sometimes b/c one tire may slip alittle which cause it to equal out the torque. hope that helps

because you're not supposed to go over 70? sounds like a crossed connection or a screwy sensor. or maybe once you hit 70 you're just spinning your tires all the way down the freeway
The car runs fine over 70, the light just pops on. Thats what my mom said "your not supposed to go over 70". I thought maybe my tires were not torqued right but there fine. Ill just take out the bulb

the low trac light should only come on when you are braking and the abs system activates to keep the brakes from locking up. As far as I know v6's never had traction control. The only thing I can think of that would be causing this is a bad abs wheel sensor. Do your brakes still behave as they should under hard braking? Does the light ever come on then?

he is most likely right you have a bad senor in the abs braking system. I have already had to replace one on my 00 V6 camaro when it only had 4000 miles on the car.

traction control? Are you positive? And how does it work? Also is it work in conjunction with a LSD?

Yeah, I Have Sgs, I dont use it that much but you turn it on after you start your car when its slippery out and it holds traction to the road so you wont skid. I thought this was a normal feature.

SGS stands for Second Gear Start, you use it when you need to start in 2nd gear in an A4 car so you can get better traction in low-traction driving, such as snow & ice. It's not the same as traction control.

Yes V6's do have traction control both my 00 Camaro and my 02 bird have them it is ASR on a Camaro and TCS on a Firebird.
