what was the first bmw to have this? and do all >2000 bmw's have it? --72.139.114.66 00:07, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] F1 ECU changes

Were the ECU changes really intended to _ban_ Traction Control? I thought it was merely a consequence of the standardized ECU design for 2008. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.101.18.213 (talk) 15:54, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

Does anyone know enough to add rail applications? Talltim (talk) 16:16, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Disputed sections

Traction Control Systems do NOT work when cornering. TCS/ASR merely monitor the difference in rotational road wheel speed between driven axles compared to non-driven axles. "Cross axle" monitoring is sometimes called "Electronic Differential Lock" or EDL, and may be an addition to TCS, but is not a standard component (or design function) of TCS. -- Teutonic_Tamer (talk to Teutonic_Tamer) 07:27, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

Rubbish. TCS senses diferential wheel rotational acceleration across the axle, and suppresses it. If your company charges extra for that, fine, but other companies don't. Hopefully they will drive yours out of business.Greg Locock (talk) 09:34, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
