near-freezing temperatures

Yep, anything below 55F on our OEMs and I notice a lack of traction. Simply turning out of my driveway with very, very minimal throttle causes the diff to engage

Yep, anything below 55F on our OEMs and I notice a lack of traction. Simply turning out of my driveway with very, very minimal throttle causes the diff to engage and the VDC to flash, preventing acceleration for a solid 2-3 seconds, until I let go of the pedal.

But yeah, once you warm the tires up on the highway by driving for at least 5-10 minutes, you should be fine. I don't recommend driving in the rain when it's cold, though.
