It used to be switch car on, press hazard light button, press throttle 5 times and traction control light comes on.

Turn off hazards to switch it off.

Yeah not sure that works anymore. Haven’t tried it myself though.

Got the car booked in for development at a tuning box manufacturer. Was there today and he had a go, couldn’t get it to work.

They’ve only got a 2wd dyno so easier for them to put it into dyno mode. Otherwise it’s disconnect the haldex or take it to tuner with a 4wd dyno.

You can enable it with VCDS also.

Btw, It’s not a Haldex any more.

Totally different Magna system.

Guessing that’ll be more difficult to ‘disconnect’ as well

If you watch this video it gives you an idea of what can happen on the Dyno with the rear torq vector system.

I’ve been told why this was happening to his car.
