Hello, my first thread here.
I got a question , I did search, but didnt find any good answers to my question.
How stable is the m5 at the winter, I mean 500hk+RWD, is it good or bad, is it safe?
Is it stupit to buy a M5 if u should use it as a safe car at the winter to?
Thanks.

winter struggling in 5cm snow, so i would say driving it in snow is a last resort

no keep dtc on, look in the manny,
dtc is for traction, because the all the car's wheels are spinning at different rates on the slippery snow, dsc will try to correct the STABILITY problem even though there isn't
dtc is more lax... and will try to keep traction, which is more important than stability...... especially on snow

To get good traction you sometimes must turn DTC OFF due to the fact that on real slippery roads you`ll loose all power as the car MUST spin to get ahead.
