Hi guys...had the Evora for four weeks now and, if you've read earlier posts you'll know I'm enthusiastic about it. Anyway, I noticed the traction control light permanently on after I first washed it and so took it out for a spin, noticing it had also disabled the cruise control and sport light on the dash (although sport function still works). I carried on driving it thinking who needs traction control anyway and knowing it was booked in for a factory recall door lock change soon anyway, so they could look at it then, but then the frost and ice arrived so I contacted the dealer and it went in earlier than planned. I washed it before they picked it up and low and behold the light went off, with the guy who collected it also reporting it had not been on all the way back to the dealership. The dealer also reported they could find no fault, so contacted a specialist who reset the ECU and, apparently, problem solved. They then washed and valeted it. Bonus I thought and drove through after work to drop the courtesy car in and pick it up. However, on driving off the light came on again within 200 yards, again indicating no traction control. Straight back into the dealer then! Anyone else had any trouble like this?
