does anyone know of this guy? apparently he drives an SRi-T so Powerchip tell me that they have spoken to him about some Traction Control Problems he is having that are simular to mine and Mr Astra steve...
apparently Anthony De Marinis has no mods on his car and has this T/C problem....
if anyone knows him please tell him to PM me.

Traction Control lights turning on by it self after about 15mns of driving.
apparenty Powerchip spoke to this guy and he is a member on this forum. and he is having the same problems but with NO MODS to his car and powerchip reacon its not POWERCHIP Related.
i find that hard to belive as i had done all the steps powerchips programer had asked me to do, including re-mappoing my car back to standard for a week or two (8days) i had it in standard mode and i had NO PROBS with any lights. so powerchip beg to differ, or claim quote "Because the Powerchip gives your car more power it may cause the issue to become more apparent, but that would be it."unquote. maybe that cold be the problem who knows but i hope i get an answer or a solution really soon :).

i have seen this problem myself in another car (sri-t) when a tech-2 was plugged in the reading was unknown ecu and the guy who owned this astra has a big problem now as has been blacklisted from any warranty (engine wise) at holden
so if any one say,s holden cannot detect a chip in a astra turbo it is all BULL CRAP

ye i know that holden car detect the chip im not worried about that at all.
so ur saying that this problem ur friend had was due to the POWERCHIP yeah.???

well looks like no one knows who this anthony de mirnis guy is....
is he even a member of this forum or what? or is he just a one post guy who joint the club and has pissed off???

oh well ill give powerchip a buzz tomorrow and have a chat to them as in my case i didnt have any probs with the T/C light when in standard mode.
