My 01 V70 makes a nice little grinding noise when the driver's side wheel starts to slip. The traction control works fine, and I know differentials make noise when the trac control engages, but this just sounds different then other cars.

I'm just wondering if that's normal for it to make a sort of clicking/spinning/grinding kinda noise when the tires start to slip. Like I said, it only seems to happen when the driver's side slips, not the pass. side.

It works fine though and engages with no problems.

 

I would say it should be normal. These have the weirdest sounding tacs system I have ever heard.

 

Yeah tell me about it, but it sure works great, better then other vehicles I have owned. It's almost instant when it kicks in. Other cars usually take a second or two before it really starts working.

 

Yes it is quick and good working.
