Am I driving like a puff?
I have only had the DSC light come on one time and that was during a snowstorm. Do most of you light up the DSC daily. I think I am going around the turns fast but maybe it just seems that way.

i have no idea i usually turn it off (unless its raining), and it never feels like im losing control, so i wouldnt be surprised if it only lights once or twice while in spirited driving

Fifteen minutes ago I virtually slided 100° around the corner with DSC on while turning left from the stand ... from asphalt to wet cobblestone mixed with streetcar tracks.
Since I had impressive wheelspin I guess the light was on ... but the car was easy to catch, no worries. I just didn't know it can have so much wheelspin with DSC on after all.

I see mine several times a week - usually in the same spot on the way to work- It's a right turn after a stop sign- I use that stretch of road to check my indicator light for DSC and clean off my plugs and check my rev limiter beep - all a part of routine maintanence : )

I light up DSC at the entrance to my apartment complex, where there is a slight bump that lifts the tires off the ground.
I've also lit the lamp taking a turn on low traction bricks.

Never felt the DSC or TCS because THEY WERE NOT WORKING!! Dead ABS module was diagnosed and replaced last week. Posted in Tech Garage under power steering failure.
