My Ride: 2006 530xi. Deep green with beige interior. 6 speed manual. Premium package.
leave it on
the only time you need it off is when you need wheel spin - such as when all four tires have no traction

My Ride: 535d Sport, carbon black, media pack, visibility pack, grey leather, heated seats, sun protection glass, voice control, Eibach ProKit, 19" 166 style wheels, e-maps ECU remap to 325hp and 640NM, top speed limiter removed
It is "ON" by default.
The only time I would switch it off in wintery or similar slippery conditions (muddy open field parking etc.) would be to get away from a standstill, if DTC would prohibit me from getting off, by regulating the slip too much. Once rolling, I'd switch it back on.
