    Works in a Td5 but does it still work in the Puma?

    OK Puma owners...

    In the Td5, which also has the Wabco-D ABS controller, the TC could be disabled at start up as follows according to the workshop manual.

    "TC can be disabled by operating the brake pedal ten times within ten seconds, when the ignition is turned on. TC will be re-activated when the ignition is turned off then on again."

    So has anyone tried this?

    Personally I like TC off-road but I'm curious if this applies to the Puma

    I like the ETC too. Does this also turn off the ABS. I had a scare on a gravel mountain road once. Just skipped over the top of the gravel - Yikes.

    I'll have to give a go if it ever stops raining. Just thought someone might have tried it already.
