Nope. That's only true if you just turn off tcs (press tcs button or hold for 2.99 seconds or less). If you hold it down for three seconds to turn off both it won't turn back on at 31mph.

Apparently I was on crack last time I tried it cause I tried it when I got home in the driveway today and sure enough the TRAC turned off. Oh well, glad it works. Not sure what I did wrong last time but I'm over it. Thanks guys.

lol you can get full power by putting your foot to the floor!
VSC and traction is only for stabilty control and rear wheel spin. for the guys that have to ask about it i would recommend you press the VSC sport mode and then press the traction control button and let go straight away. (so that traction is off and teh green sport mode is displayed on the dash) this way if you are in a big slide the car will bring you back in to line if you start to get out to sideways. This car can snap out violently if you don't know what you are doing, and you could end up sideways in to a tree or a oncoming car or something so, take it easy if you are not used to going sideways. Take the car to a massive empty carpark or skidpan and pratice with the traction control off and then when you are more confident the sport mode on as well before you try and hold down the left button to turn everything off. |

Brand new car, now some questions
Just picked mine 4 hours ago, finally came home and got on this! Im pumped, it looks just as good as it feels which is hard to find I feel with a 25K car.
I am to learn more about the sport buttons. Part of me wants to turn everything off and learn the old school way, yes ..no? |

Oh, and the sport mode is a joke. Considering how easily the car clears the 8 degrees of oversteer it takes to trigger it, it just brakes and yanks you backwards (often too far off center in the other direction) violently. It's a joke. |

I have to agree that the sport mode is kind-of a joke. It is good if you are driving spiritedly on a back road that you're unfamiliar with (for those pesky blind hairpins and turns over the crests of hills). However, if you know the road, it will just get in the way all the time. I generally drive with it all off by holding the left button down when I go for a fun drive.

So glad I found this thread! Although, the owner's manual definition of what *exactly* VSC Sport mode *is*...is not very satisfying.
Can anyone provide a better explanation? What exactly do the system(s) that VSC Sport turns off...do? |
