Re: Collision Control System - Inadvertent brake application

Same with mine, the worst was overtaking a HV on a motorway in the rain, at 70mph, it hit the brakes lighting up the red icon, just for a slit second, good job the person behind had left a gap!

It then repeats at random intervals. It only does it when the fan is on. The noise is coming from behind the glove box. Any ideas...
