Descent Engine
Hi All,

I was out playing in my 08 320 ML CDI. Has anyone noticed that you get a big acceleration serge before the descent Engine activates? Once moving it works great!

The word descent is related to the word descend and is likened to going down a hill.

Are you talking about hill descent control?

"SURGE" before Descent Control activates ? Curious...
Tejas, if so, you have a serious problem. I guess.....
