Has VDC made you a worse Z driver?

Nimbus · 08-14-2010, 12:02 PM

Does anyone know how to default VDC off instead of on? Or is there a fuse to pull for permanently disable VDC?

There is a company that makes modules you can wire in that will trigger VDC off on start-up. My lawyers have advised me not to give you this information (and besides I've lost the link)....

very dangerous and will void warranty if they know it. You might not mind killing yourself but you might kill someone else some time. You get into an accident and they find out the VDC was off or disabled and you had hurt someone you are done with, ins will not cover you and all.

I agree it's very dangerous and a mod like that will void your warranty, but I don't believe it would affect insurance. Of course insurance policies vary, but my insurance has never had a clause that required me to keep all driver aids on at all times.

neglegance might play a factor in their decision. Dont know if they can legally say they wont pay if the driver is neglegent but they will probably try when it comes to big bucks. Just not worth it either way.

Yes but this module is different from just pushing the button and if they found out they would whine about it.

Hell here if I have a accident and they found out if I had a different CBE+intakes I would lose my insurance because my HP would be different than what I insure and they would blame the extra power.

So technically everytime I mod the car I have to go back and tell them "yo I got new intakes" and then they put "cartuning" in my file.

causing me to pay alot more.
