If so was it as easy as a switch across the clutch pressure switch and did the dealers have anything to say about it.

Our Land Rover does not leak oil! it just marks its territory.......
Id hazard a guess as the answer being.

I doubt it's going to be as easy as bridging the clutch switch as anti-stall does not work by the clutch signal.
You can idle up a steep hill in 2nd & the revs will pick up without going anywhere near the clutch.

Hi Scouse, the car is almost undrivable with the clutch switch disconnected, (unplugged), if you do decide to try it do it in an empty paddock! (Curiosity got the better of me one day). I have not tried it with the switch bridged out however.
To disable the antistall will be difficult, I don't know if it uses the speed sensor in the gearbox or the wheel sensors for the TC/ABS, or a combination of the two. No doubt someone will find a way, it may be as simple as pulling a fuse or two.
Cheers,

Having driven quite a bit of off road in an "old fashioned" Land Rover (without the aids) I would dispute this assertion.
I find with a change of technique that the new aids help.
The basic rules remain the same:And further more there are still furious debates in this place about when to engage the CDL.... hardly a recent driver's aid intended to assist the novice
- read the conditions
- know the vehicle's limits
- no vehicle or driver is invincible

Ex 300Tdi Disco:
yet as great as it is looky what a dead simple search brings up...
Traction Control on / off
Is there a traction control fuse?
turning off the traction!
TD5 / Xtreme traction control ?
and that was just 4 picked at random from the result pages.
What I really really want to see is the switch for turning off marketing **** Speak.

The way I read CapeLandys question was that he wanted to disable the Anti-stall, not the traction control. I find both systems great, however I've read that some people do not like the anti-stall as it can cause the vehicle to surge going down steep hills in Low 1st. I've found "driving" the car down hills, ie using the throttle, stops this.
