DSC

hi people,

Do u use the DSC in the 3 series and for what purpose ?

:yuhoo:

[SSense]

DSC or Dynamic Stability Control will stop your wheels from spinning or let the car go out of control, like drifting. You can switch it off when you go for a drift session because there on track you dont want the car to be controlled, hence learn to control yourself, whereas on streets its advisable to keep it on, God forbid for situations you never think the car would go out of control, specially when it rains..

woah you are too quick in replying !!!:thanks2:. but i dont ever keep it on in fact i have hardly used it so you recommend keeping it on when i am inside the city??

Wait..

Right now your DSC is engaged and ON automatically, dont get confused and remember this, when there's no light on the dashboard then your DSC is ON..

When you go on a track or want to OFF the DSC or lets say your DSC is not working, then the triangle light will be displayed on your dashboard, which is a warning that your DSC is OFF..

See the pic below as an example to DSC OFF:

Hold your traction button down for over 5 seconds and wait till it goes completely off. There are 2 settings btw.

whats the 2nd option ?

The 2nd option is the DTC the Dynamic Traction Control. It is used to drive over ice and sand. Helps if you dont have an LSD.

Just push the button and it will activate the DTC and give you a message that the DSC will not be fully functional.

Basically allows, limited wheel spin.
