wwest Posted August 12, 2004 Share Posted August 12, 2004 It might very well be the VSC helping to "stabilize" the vehicle. Suddenly increasing the engine torque output while simultaneously turning the steering wheel off-center would potentially "upset" a FWD vehicle, or any vehicle for that matter. But on a FWD you are increasing the lateral stress on the front tires at the same time as the longitutnal stress, were the traction surface only slight slippery..... I can readily envision an engineer/programmer thinking " gee, what a neat idea". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
