Buzzer tone sandy underbody

Postby Jakemaca on Tue, 13 Nov 2018 6:16 +0000

I drive a Hilux dualcab SR 2015. On a recent trip to Fraser i started to hear a quiet high pitched buzzer tone every time my car drove through deep sandy ruts and the sand would scrape the underbody of my vehicle. Has anyone experienced the same thing and or knows what it is?

Traction control? Did the lights come on? Whenever you lose traction as in sand, the traction control light comes on and it makes a sound.

Cheers Gipsy :D although I'm sure somebody will challenge that :lol: even Einstein wasn't certain of his theories.

Hi. I had the trc turned off but not the vsc. There was no flashing lights on dash. The sound only came on when sand hit the underbody.

Vsc will do it too, the light is momentarily on if stability control detects unstable wheel travel.
