My ESC tends to brake in corners when I am only taking a corner slightly fast. Tonight I was entering the freeway via a cloverleaf and the ESC applied the brakes 3x in the turn. I was not going any faster than the traffic in front or behind me. My Ineos does have the Eibach lift, so I am wondering if that affected the ESC settings possibly?

More so than the lift (which will certainly cause a bit more body roll due to the change in CoG) I would confirm alignment settings after the lift, and then tire pressures

If this has happened only after the kit has been installed it may have something to do with this. I still doubt.

I would suspect a sensor or possibly sensor wiring problem: ABS, steering angle, acceleration, or some other sensor affecting EDC.
Electronic controls ... :rolleyes:

Probably to do with calibration of the steering angle sensor after wheel alignment. The wheel alignment sensor and the ADAS are both connected. If one of these are off, it can give you false readings and throw up false activation of the ESC. Have you had wheel alignment done or new windscreen? The dealer can recalibrate them using diagnostic machine. US spec I believe. UK and AUS doesn’t have ADAS yet, thank god.

Ideally, wheel angle sensors need to be reset after wheel alignment.

My dealer says there is a Yaw sensor that is telling my ESC to brake early because of my Eibach lift. They just installed the same lift on another Ineos and it caused the same issue on the same freeway on ramp. They have contacted Ineos and are hoping to get a setting so they can recalibrate the yaw sensor after a lift. Currently they have no setting or ability to change this setting.

Usually It should be the ADAS sensor. The sensor on top of your windscreen needs recalibrating because of the lift.
