Wheel speed sensor fault?

Been struggling for a while with a couple of issues which I think maybe linked. Gearbox does not like to select 6th ( but ca select it in manual) and it does not like right handlers- the traction control cuts in. Is this one of the wheel sensors going and sending dodgy signals to the control units?

I would look to see if there are any fault codes and look at the live values.

The steering sensor may need calibrating and if you have a faulty engine oil temp sensor the gearbox will hold lower gears

6th gear will not be used in auto mode until dear oil has reached operating temperature.
Check your tyres including wear, size and pressure Thumbs Up

Where is the temperature sensor?
Rimmer cannot find one listed so who could supply?

Cheers

Where is the DSC is kicking in front or rear?

Check:
Tyre pressures
Fault codes
SAS
Suspension arm bushes
4 wheel alignment.

If the problem persists after all that you'll possibly have a stuck open crossover valve in one or both valve blocks. Poor handling on country bends is a dead giveaway!
(This does not seem to get picked up by the control module, and so there will be no fault code for it. Rolling Eyes )
