I could live with this "problem". Itīs a just that i want to sell this car and that ainīt easy with this warning that comes up every time i turn on the ignition. I havenīt noticed anything with the DSC. It works just fine according to me when i try to play around winter half year if i donīt disable it.
I bought a couple of weeks ago a part that is changeable on the rack where the cables go in, but i havenīt changed it yet.

Can they code the issue out?? I asked the workshop if they can do it and they said no it is not possible because the car is built and programmed like this.

I noticed that the front brake discs are not in the best shape. Could that be causing this fault or is there no connection at all with brakes and steering??
