Default Re: Traction Control?

"After we got out 6-12" of snow that actually tuned out to be a 1/2" at best. My driveway was all slushy. So I punched it for the duration of the driveway, about 300', and it just spun and spun. It tracked straight, no pulling to either side, so still unsure how many wheels were spinning, but guarntee there was to TC kicking in! So us 08's are no different than the rest!"


Did you mean NO TC kicking in? You have a TO in your sentence?

If it spun and spun, then that's not TC. You will know TC kicks in because the car power is dropped as the brakes engage each spinning wheel. TC = no wheel spin (minor wheel spin).
