Why can't i do donuts?

2006330iFTW · 05-14-2009, 10:17 PM

Ok guys i know i'm gonna have people here saying "WTF stop doing donuts in ur BMW" and to them i'll say this i on;y do it when its wet out so i don't burn rubber and empty parking lots to have some fun so F*** off lol. Anyways back to the topic, i press and hold the DTC button until the triangle with the circle symbol comes up and says that its inactive. Now my Question is this did i only turn off traction control and stability is still on? Is there a way to turn every assist off aka "Dyno Mode"? Thx. Peace.

Hold the DTC button for 5 seconds, until you see a picture of a wheel with a warning triangle on it. That means you've turned off both DSC and DTC.

You cant do donuts as easily with the 330. But it can be dont. You just cant do it because you suck. And theres no LSD in the 3s.

Read what i said dude i did that and something is still stopping the car from sliding out...the ass kicks out for a sec like its starting to slide then something kicks in.

when you hold the dtc for 5+ secs that yellow triangle comes, on and the little light stays lit and you have no stability control. put the car in 1sr gear preferably and let it rip. if that doesn't work get a 335

Let me drive your car. I'll get it to do a donut. I promise.

Hyper_545i · 05-15-2009, 07:11 AM

It can be done. Just not as easy or fun without a limited slip differential.

Mantis64 · 05-15-2009, 07:18 AM

I can do donuts with my diesel, so obviously you lack torque

SpmnE9zero · 05-15-2009, 07:26 AM

I have done donuts in a 1980 VW Rabbit diesel, in reverse, you gotta be doing something wrong! (

) Oh yah, after I was done I went out and baught a 350z to make it a little easier.

If you want to do donuts go buy something meant to do donuts. Otherwise mod it up and make it look pretty, and just eat some donuts driving down the road! I like glazed with sprinkles if your buying...

J08M3 · 05-15-2009, 08:44 AM

You probably should've bought an ///M3 I have no problem doing donuts. Except it's not fun buying new tires.
