Driving Your TSX In Snow

Any TSX owners from Alberta want to share their winter driving experiences? I know you guys got dumped on the other day.

How did the car handle, notice the VSA?

speaking of VSA, i don't want to start a whole new tread for my question but... When does it initiate? I've never seen it turn on and I must have like had 10 incidents where i thought it would work.

It will give about 1/4 wheel spin before it starts working. It also uses yaw sensors, etc. to get the car back in line.

Honestly, aside from being in really slick rain and gunning the engine, you have to driving pretty aggressive in the dry to get it to come on.
