Anyone care to share conditions under which Porsche Stability Management activates? I don't drive crazily, but I had an interesting situation pop up that made the PSM triangle light up and I could feel the brakes on a tire or two.

The situation was when I was going into a freeway interchange, which is a quarter circle over about half a mile. It's really not an aggressive turn at all. I've noticed in a high gear (like 6th) at low RPM (like, 2-2.5k) on this and other similar turns the PSM kicks on and slows down one of my tires. I never felt like I was out of control or in any danger of sliding. Hell, I wasn't doing anything differently than my Acura, which takes the turn at 65 no problem. Ironically, if I take the turn more aggressively in 5th at 75-80, it's never a problem!

Any thoughts? I'm curious to know under what conditions you've noticed PSM come on.

 

Maybe loose gravel/sand in that area

 

I definitely experience that the PSM is overly intrusive on long freeway interchange sweepers. It will start braking and totally unsettle the car. Even after changing out the suspension with Techart coilovers and forged wheels, it's still the same. It only happens on the fwy interchanges for me.

 

this is why I turn if off.
