hi can anyone tell me what is the VSA off switch for? and every time i try to turn it off the Traction control light come on but not the VSA light is that normal?

 

leave it alone
only reason to turn off is stuck going uphill in the ice at low speed from a stop

have a read of the owner book! dont have one? go here for free download

I thought that button was for burn outs? Haha

 

Turn off and get a very nice Burnout.
Also for some Reason while driving the Steering feels more loose and Responsive, I always turn off TC going down a mountain it just corners better for some reason.

 

Its in your head if you think turning traction control off makes the car corner better. TC only limits wheel spin (on the TL-P only up to 15mph or so)

 

yup... Traction control off = Asking to buy new trans

 

I was thinking of damage to axles doing burnouts as a main reason to leave it alone

 

thank for the info guy that help a lot! and no burn out on my 03 Cls.... oh yeah i have post another thread about 3rd and 4th pressure clutch switches and wonder did anyone did that on 01-03 TL and CLS? i know a member did his 3G Tl and he said the car shifted better... i want to do my and it cost about 100 buck for the two pressure switch... let me know if anyone did it and how the car drive....

..... Audio System... Morel component tempo front stage,Hertz compoment rear, JVC double din , old school 4 channel alpine, 2 DD 1500 12" sub, DD M3a Amp, Tru Technology 6channel line output , 0 gauge power wire and ground....

 

Can you explain why?

 

Unless VSA is being activated while cornering it cant change the way the car corners. All it does is apply braking to specific wheels and closes the throttle body (the TB in front of the actual tb) to limit power to help get the car back in control. It doesnt do any thing to the steering or trans.

 

There have been a few that have tried it. I would take them out and inspect them, see if the screens are clogging up. If they are dirty but working properly i would just clean them. Of course if you have the extra 100 or so you could always replace them (i would pull all solenoids out and clean them personally

 

I think you should be very careful deactivating VSC, Vehicle Stability Control.
I personally believe that deactivation of the VSC could be more dangerous as you hit sharper corners, loss of traction, etc.
Yes I think there is better throttle assist but you sacrifice traction.
VSC is pretty much the same as ABS but for acceleration or driving.
I'm most worried about deactivation during rainy weather, or fast turns, because over or understeer happens, deactivating it will loose some safety.

Bottom line? Use it for burnouts, (hehe) or getting out of mud.

 

VSA is a nanny i dont want. I wont own a vehicle i cant fully disable it by pressing a button.

 

Hey guys i have an 04 TL but the light round the stereo nub and where the Park Drive stick is its not lighting plus to turn my AC on or off i need to turn my interior light on to see the button. Can this be a fuse?
PLZ HELP

 

Yes it could but i would def post this in the main forum to get a reply...... oh and in the third gen main forum btw. your car's a little defferent as it was manufactured after a major design change. Look in the front corner of the driver door and there should be a panel on the side of the dash, (one on the passenger side too) and not sure which on your just don't wanna misinform you if i haven't already.
