Since I had one of the front P Zeros blow out on me about 3000 Kms ago and the fact that I have ongoing issues with Pirelli tyres, I currently have Michelin Latitude Sports on the front and P Zeros on the rear. The fact that the tyres are different brands in itself should not be an issue for the vehicles systems. If there is a significantly difference in size between front and rear it could be an issue.

Absolutely no way the tyres are to blame for your issue. You know in your heart the tech is full of crap!

Swapped the tires out today. Issue is completely gone. The tires being worn to different levels and being different brands and types (one set more of a summer tire and the other set more of an all season tire) that It was tripping the diff. I will be swapping all of my fluids (diffs, tranny, tcase) as I'm sure this engaging put additional stress on everything
