From the way you described what happen it sounds like VDC was off unless u were doing like 130 mph. I have made turns in dry and wet at normal speeds and been able to put my foot down and keep it down and VDC keeps me in check. I feel the car rotate around but once the VDC kicks in she gets straight again. Amazing system, I almost never turn mine off.

Mine only has 6400 miles on it, and I've had it for 11 months now. :\

Granted the winter was brutal and I don't like driving in the rain, plus I work too much... :|

chuckd05 · 10-19-2011, 02:51 PM

AlphaSnacks · 10-19-2011, 03:06 PM

Yes indeed. Look forward to seeing the 135, dude. I'll have my GF 335i there, as well. The Bimmer guys should be coming too.

In a RWD car VDC on or off would make no difference once the rear steps out. Wet leaves are dangerous not just because they're wet, but also because they're oily once water mixes in with them.

Once the rear steps out physics finishes the job. A pile of wet leaves doesn't provide more traction than say...ice. Especially on a slight bend.
