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:confused:

I like the ETC too. Does this also turn off the ABS. I had a scare on a gravel mountain road once. :eek2:  Just skipped over the top of the gravel - Yikes.

Derek..... how else are you going to tell if the TC is off?
 
Water + Dirt = Mud ....ipso facto: loss of traction :D

Company housing:angel:  Mine doesn't come with a carport:(
Also take your average garden shed, add freight costs, include the fact it must be cyclone rated, work out the fact that concrete is worth about 10 times what everyone else pays for it and you have a shed that costs an awful lot more than one down south would.
