Hi Guys
I've searched on the forum and found a bit on ESP system fault,mine seems to be a bit different.
It does'nt come on every trip and it only comes on under brakeing mostly firm brakeing.No loss of power no limp mode.
I fitted cai about 500km ago,so do think it's induction or brakes??
I really do'nt want go to the dealership and worry about my extended warrenty.

Thanks

check your maf sensor on the induction might be bumping against something rotate it to the top or bottom see if that works

What he said ^^ Also make sure there is no tension on the ECU wiring esp in forward and backward movements of the motor.

Howzit before you take the car in make sure that the MAF sensoris mounted or secured by a bracket or something as the engine movement will let it sway and get incorrect readings
