This may have already been discussed, and if so, I apologize. What's the difference between DSC and DTC and when do you use them? The default on mine is DSC and I never turn it off. If I hit the button, it automatically switches to DTC.
Thanks,
Marc

dsc is stability control aka prevent spins, wheelspin, etc.
dtc is more stringent straight line traction control, for slippery surfaces
hold down the button to turn both off

My Ride: E60 520d with BMW Night Vision, Adaptive Bi-Xenon, Adaptive Cruise Control, Pro Logic 7, Pro Nav with DVD changer and TV, Aux in for Ipod, Hella White Taillamps, Red Angel eyes, HUD, BMW Individual Backseat DVD with infrared headsets, Alp White 3, Comfort Seats with ventilation electric memory, sunroof, PDC, Alpine remap, M-Sport, Dynamic Drive, Steptronic ..... (ALL OPTIONS) (Why not get all options then buying a bigger engine?)
Difference is DTC lets you to have more wheel spin for snow or heavy rain (or just for fun). DSC never lets your wheels spin and in order to have fun while driving spin wheels and go like crazy with burning wheels you need to turn both off.

Yes you are right but the thing is DSC covers it all and DTC is and way basic DSC.
