I had my car for about 2 years now. Lately, the ASC light has been coming on when i push my car. When im driving at normal speeds, its fine however when i start pushing it, it comes on! Didn't used to do it in the past. Does this happen to anyone else? When i turn my car off and on, its back to normal. Any ideas why that happens?

And also today i was in the process of replacing my sway bars. The front one worked out fine however my rear sway bar brackets that are connected to the control arms were broken. Yes, both were broken identically. I took it around to get some ideas and there verdict is that they have to take the control arms off, weld the brackets under extreme heat, put em back on and install the rear sway bar for $500. I'm thinking that is alot of money to put down for a rear sway bar. I'm going to do an autoX event this weekend and i will not have a rear sway bar. Wish me luck...

Hi, does the asc light flash when your pushing the car or does it stay constantly light?
Also its not uncommon for the rear swaybar brackets to break,all you have to do is replace the brackets themselves either with oem or aftermarket items.

The asc light stays on, even after i stop pushing my car.
the bracket that holds the sway bar link to the control arm; the one on the control arm is broken as well so thats why they have to weld it back together..

The sway bar brackets are a "tongue in something" type dilly dally....

Why not just buy new dilly dallys???
