What does your traction control sound like?

You know when you're on an old wooden rollercoaster and it's ratcheting and clanking and churning up that first tallest hill? That is what it sounds like.

 

I imagined something more along the lines of these two going at it:

 

Surprisingly enough lots of people freak out when they hear their ABS go off.
OP that's normal, like a droning/grinding noise, not high pitch but somewhat high.

 

Thanks everyone! I figured that was the case but was just looking for some confirmation that I wasn't going crazy.

 

Mine makes this noise. Burrrrrrrrrraaaaaaaaaadadadadadadadadadaderrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrtttttttt

 

My bunghole, it goes Fwwruaaaaahhhraaaaapapapapapapa!

 

yup, absolutely normal, I do like that when i let the ass swing out the truck trys to correct itself, and it does a pretty good job at it too...

 

I wish I could switch it off on the fly, so when I want to go sideways nothing is stopping. But, yes it’s great when I don’t want to be sideways.

 

Hahahahaahaha

 

you can... 4 lo disabled traction control... or you can partially disable it by kitting the traction control button...

 

When in 2WD, try engaging the Auto LSD which also disables traction control. I use often for “snowy fun mode”.

Also, this being my first year with a 3rd gen, the auto LSD and traction control system seems way more responsive than it was on my 2nd gen.

 

Sounds like some shit is grinding metal to metal, some small explosions, gears binding and my dog was put in a blender. Meh. It’s normal.

 

Every ABS system enabled car i've ever driven sounded like a big guy with a metal stick got out and just lifted up on it like a friction brake on the ground..

 

My gf thought she’d broken the truck the first time she heard the everything engage for traction. Lol I played on her worry until she almost started crying before I broke the news ........... “It’s normal hun”.

 

Surprised they still use that noisy ABS actuator, especially since they added crawl control.

 

Exactly how one sounds.

 

Folks - I think OP has a SPORT.

 

LOL, that’s pretty specific...

 

OK...

 

Decent with crawl control sound very similar to traction control engaging. Likely the same systems with different software settings.
