So I lifted slowly to avoid snap in and the car had straightened out already when the TCS light came on and it spun with the ass going out to the right.
I never touched the brakes until the VSC induced spin to the right at which point I just mashed the brakes and let the ABS do the work from there.
I am convinced that the car applied brakes for the electronic diff feature when that is the very last thing an experienced driver would have done under the circumstances.
So now the question: If VSC and TC are disabled, is the electronic diff feature still active?
I REALLY wish that Toyota would release a technical explanation of how the system works.
It's only a matter of time before some accident occurs where there is proof that a lack of understanding of the system results in a lawsuit inducing accident.
Having such a complex system on a vehicle with little to NO explanation of how it works is irresponsible on Toyota's part.
In fact, we dont even know HOW tunes might affect the different ECUs in the vehicle.
Is it possible to modify a tune to where it interfere's/interacts with stability systems?
I dont think anyone knows....
