wheel spins......

driving in the ice and snow i got very little traction (standard!!!)
only thing is that when the wheels spin the slightest bit (not a full on burn out!!) or the abs cuts in i get the dirtyest grinding noise almost like the teeth of coggs slipping.....
Does anyone else experience this or am i thinking i got a problem???

Its your ABS kicking in (when you brake anyway)
If you have it, try turning off your ASR / ESP. That will allow the engine to rev rather than have the power cut back

Mine does this too, even if traction is off, i'm wondering if traction is ever FULLY off though? I hate thise noise, it doesn't seem right.

traction control doesnt affect the abs tho, only way you can disable abs is by pulling the fuse and putting up with the dash light
