Traction control

[bellamy06]

Just a quick question, does the traction control turn off when the esp is turned off? or is there another way of turning it off??
cheers

ASR and ESP are not the same things. On some cars they are both deactivated together, some later cars can deactivate only ASR or both.

so the pre facelift ones cant remove the ASR? Or does it switch off with ESP when you press the switch? Its quite confusig :S
