Hey guys I was wondering if someone knew the answer to my question?
When I start my car my traction light and skidding light turns on and I can feel my car not have any traction what can this mean? And how can it be fixed?

what brand(s) and size of tires and wheels? stock or aftermarket? Change anything recently? Give us some details.

Yes give more info like is the rear of the car is on jack stands?
Thats the only thing i can think of when you said you felt the car has no traction when you just started the car. Like in stand still and your reving?

The wheels need to be in contact with the road to have traction or the wheels need to be rotating against the road to have traction. Lol

colder temps + summer tires = hard tires = spinning.

I get it now that it's sub 10*C and this is even from a slow roll to 75% throttle.
