Morpheus Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 i have Vredestein Sessanta rear tyres also That's quite a stammer you have there. Did you get them for Christmas? Seriously though, this time of year, hibernate your right foot. One slip and you're facing the wrong way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 It comes from losing traction so badly that your car just assumes you are driving on snow. De-leading the right foot should sort it although the geo could be out too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ark Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Just keep your foot in for 2 seconds, and assuming your not actually driving far too fast for the conditions, snow mode will switch itself off. More importantly, it comes off smoothly and progressively as it re-opens the throttle. If you opt to just switch off the TC, make sure you've got your insurance company on speed dial Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Spend some money on rubber and a geo setup then, your car isn't handling properly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morpheus Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Whatever you do, don't get run-flat tyres on the back. My car came with them fitted and they spin in the dry; well, the left one does anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
