When the light(DTC) is ON ,DTC is ON or OFF? Good video!

@lostintas Thx, the sign means its ON. Usually you use it on snow, to get more grip...or to drift a bit ;)

@lostintas What he said is wrong, when DTC light is on DTC is off. When DTC light is off DTC is on. It lights up to warn you that it isn't on. I own a BMW.

@idiotzrule i still think, i'm right^^ perhaps you are confusing it with DSC? in the normal state, DSC is on and DTC off. when you press the DTC button, DSC goes out and DTC on. it allows the wheels more to spin.(e.g. to drive more agressive)

[idiotzrule]

@GeTeAe DSC is on by default. Push button to turn off DSC and activate DTC for better traction (snow driving etc) but less stability, DTC light ON. Push and hold button for 2 or 3 seconds to turn DTC and DSC off, both lights come ON, this is for more wheel spin and aggressive driving.

@idiotzrule I think we mean the same :P with "aggressive" i was trying to say, that it's possible (but still safe) to drift a bit and get a better launch.

@LucianCLS Yes we know.

@idiotzrule When DTC lights up it is ON ! by default it is off ! In my I-drive it says DTC activated ,DSC restricted ! when i press DTC .

@neca5292 ok very thx!!

[neca5292]

@lostintas When there is no light, DSC and DTC is ON. When you press the button (on central console) once, you will turn off DTC and DSC is still activated. You are turning it on if you want to allow some wheel spin for ex if you're trying to get out from snow. When you press the button twice (hold it for few sec) both systems are off.
