Turning Traction Control permantley off with Vagcom?

novaneil · 12-04-2008, 17:27

Basically can it be done?

I can't stand my VRS's traction control... It always defaults to ON (which is annoying as I have a 7" fold out screen that covers the button and I always forget to switch it off when I first start the car)

Is there anyway (simply) of changing it so that it defaults to OFF with Vagcom, but I can still switch it on if required?

Cheers

Neil

(ps: this isn't a debate on wether or not people drive with it on or off, I just want it off!

)

I don't think this can be done. There is a relay mod though.

But on the Octy you can remap it to think it's in an S3

So there may be a similar option for your Fabia

I got a feeling Bas done some research on this a while ago.
