ATTS Problem

After 10-15 minutes of driving ATTS fault started to come up. If I switch off the engine and turn it back on the fault is gone for another 10/15 minutes. The fault started to come up after I changed the front tyres. I had 205/50/16 (stock) and I put 205/45/16. Could it be the reason? Any other suggestions?

i beleive it could possibly be the problem as the atts works off the wheel speed sensors and if the front tyres are different to the rears it will throw a code but i am sure one of the type s gurus will be along shortly

you need the same profile all round, there are sensors (i think?) that are put out by uneven tyres

Yep, I'm pretty sure if you change the tyre size the ATTS throws a wobbly.

Yep its because of your different tyres profiles. 205/45 will offer bugger all for handling also. Get them off ASAP.
