Active Handling Warming up??
Hi Guys,
I had to put a battery in the car last weekend after the long winter. I am now getting a message that the "Active Handling is warming up" This has lasted as long as 5 miles, and I got it 3 out of the 5 times that I have driven it since.
Is this common? Is it related to the battery swap?
Thanks.

I've had that message display only about 2 or 3 times, in just over 5 years of ownership.
Do you show any trouble codes with it?

I've only see it on my 02 Z when I pull it out of the garage, then proceed down the road at a very low speed, e.g. under 10 ish mph for a distance of a block or 2, then it says warm up complete and it is gone.
Do not think it is anything to worry about.

I got that message today, and it never went off.
The next ignition cycle, it was gone.
I think it may have something to do with how much you turn the wheel when you first start moving, and time to calibrate the system.

Active handling
Thanks guys - I feel better. I'm still getting used to the technology.The only warnings I'm used to getting from older muscle cars is smoke or a loud bang.
