ESP

Post by NotNormal » Mon Oct 09, 2006 5:01 pm

How can the ESP be fully turned off?

Just by pressing the switch one will turn 85% of it off, but that last 15% still anoy's me !

Any help will be apprecated

Regards

Tom

Where have you got the 85% from? I thought the switch was all or nothing, it is on my S3 anyway ....

That info was from Revo and Quattronics.

The S3 might be different :?

That's interesting.

What stays engaged - traction control, esp or both at a lower intervention level ?

On the B5 S4, off is off - no esp or traction control.

I shall ask the question and post my findings ASAP :)

If you press and hold you can get the light to go off and you can only reset it by doing an ignition off and on again.... BUT is doesn't seem to do anything!!

You cant get rid of it completely from what ive heard. But then again I might be wrong.

Ask one of the MRC guys. S2Tuner or DougS2. Theyll know for certain.
