VSA = right foot

 

Oh Jesus.

I don't feel like looking for the thread, or typing it. Pretty much, your right foot can't control each brake, individually.

 

You can't control the brakes individually, but you can power out with more throttle.

 

Back to the topic, I don't find VSA kicking in very much to be honest. Like others have said, you can probably find a better line to prevent VSA from kicking in. I find that I can always find new lines to maintain the same speeds through certain corners where I've activated VSA before. VSA is a nice driving companion in my opinion. Plus it'll be helpful if you ever completely overcook a turn.

 

There's a large & wide right hander, from a 40mph road, that turns into my neighborhood everyday. I used to have VSA kick in when I turn a little too sharply, so I'd have to ease off the throttle a bit to 30mph. Now, I turn in with minimal steering, no VSA alert, without even the turn signals shutting off, and exit at 40mph.

 

If you want driving aides, go buy a Mercedes

 

Wow this post has gone all over the place...haha. Well I will admit that I have had my new S for a few weeks now and I have not had a whole lot of seat time. I will also add that this is my first rear wheel drive car. I am very used to front wheel drives, especially since I Autocross a Civic with a swapped engine. So I can for sure tell you I am still learning how the car handles!! I would like to take it to see how it handles around the cones.

Thanks for the info guys,

John

 

such a good way to learn how to control the car properly...by using the VSA system to modify your driving style!! gonna start trying that now

 

well when i shift from 1st to 2nd it kicks in. I am shifting right

 

possibly one the most useless and stupid posts ever.... if your gonna chime in chime in with some usefull info or MORE INFO
