    New Year's Drive

    HAPPY NEW YEAR......to all members and their families! Well with that being said, thought I would take the Z out for one last drive of 2018. Believe me that's no easy task for last December in Idaho, but the winter so far has been mild. I didn't drive too far from home base about 68mi. one way, but did hit a light dusting at higher level. That was where I slowed my ass down, not knowing if the rear end would break loose in the tight curves. Question: was I suppose to drive in the ADB mode, or activate the DSC for that type of driving?? TIA

    Not sure what you mean by "drive in ADB mode", but when you first turn on your car all of the nannies are turned on. I (mostly) drive that way on public roads and would make sure they are all on if I found myself on sketchy roads.

    Oh, and Happy New Year to you too.
