Traction Control

[Els]

From what i belive the 182cup has traction controll same as the other models.

BUT is there a button on the dash so you can turn traction controll off?

As i know a lot of cars do have an on and off switch.

Thanks

Good good.

Yeah its known as traction controll on 90% of cars. Sorry for the NON technical term

Hmm, thought it was known as esp or varients of that with most manufacturers now afaik. Traction control only stops the wheels spinning, ESP trys to stop you stacking it.

Good to have the on/off option

ESP is Electronic stability program. When the wheels are moving in an irregular fashion, the computer applies brakes to the individual wheels to stop it spinning. All done very fast so all you really notice is that the car isn't letting you accelerate or brake like you normally could..

Traction control just cuts power to the engine if the drive wheels are moving faster than the other wheels.
