For Vehicle Stability Control it uses a lot more inputs such as Steering wheel position, yaw rate, lateral acceleration, throttle input (intent), AND wheel speed sensors.
It will intervene in a VSC situation buy applying brakes to the appropriate wheel using the ABS system.

Cool, thanks for the explanation
Wasnt trying to act like a smart ass..
Im happy the car is running strong again, changing the coilpack wasnt too bad for anyone reading, was quite straight forward. Didnt have to lift the engine or anything, just move the ecu.
