is there any way to really turn off the traction control?

 

Yes, if you open the hood and take the cable of the ESP box it will be 100% shut off. But you will also turn the ABS/BAS off and get warning lights all the time you drive it. But for dyno it's the only option on our W210 models.

 

thanks

 

Isn't there a fuse you can pull thats located under the rear seat?

 

i heard about something called dyno mode

 

I believe the dyno mode only started on the newer models. On the W210 you have to physically disable the system.

 

Yes = W210 = No dyno mode!

 

i don't really see it as a problem unless getting dyno'd like abalone said. burn out is easily doable with esp half turned off.
