What settings do you guys use when you are normally driving around?

On or Off?

 

On. There's really no reason to turn it off for routine street driving.

 

Generally on, especially if there's any sign of moisture about (easy lads....) I do find it cuts in a little bit earlier than I would like if I'm getting into the loud pedal on the exit of a corner though so if there's a bit of road I know with clear exits and runoff and it's safe I'll turn it off.

 

It bothers me when on, it seems to cut too early and unexpectedly. I usually turn it off but miss the digital MPH readout as the speedo is not easy to read.

 

Agreed, definitely comes in too early. Just when you think you've got it turned in the back end is coming round nicely it backs you out of the power.

 

Most of the time I have it on but the weekends I usualy drive harder with some of my friends.
for the guys that miss the digital speedo just press "READ" where the navigation and trip 1/2 controls are located that will show the digital speedometer.

 

is it OK to turn it off/on while you drive?

 

If it backed me out of the power that would be ok. It cuts power rather abruptly. imho

 

Thanks for the tip on the digital speedo. I like to drive with it off, but I hate that the trip computer locks up.

 

I drive my car pretty hard but apparently not as hard as you guys do. I find this car has either too much traction or not enough torque for it to be an issue, so I leave it on. You have to really launch it hard for the wheels to spin at all.

Mine fishtails some on hard acceleration, but even then the tires don't really lose traction. The only time I can see it being worthwhile to turn it off would be on the track.

What are you guys doing, drifting competitions on the street or something?

 

Agreed. Too much too soon, without a doubt.

 

No problem

 

Thanks Mac
