Winter tyre limit!

GregoryGR · 11-23-2007

Dans/everyone good day,

yesterday on my way home i was in the mood to run a little bit faster than usual. When i hit 160 km/h (100 miles/h), i got the following message "Winter tyre limit 160 km". As you can understand, the car denied getting faster! I tried this twice, with the same outcome...

Is there something i can do to deactivate this option? Maybe from the menu?

Thanks

Funny you should mention that. I saw that setting when I first got my car a couple of months ago. I was having a play with the menu last week and now its gone!

Took it back to change a faulty axle sensor for the dipped beam adjustment. I guess that's when the menu was changed. Its a stadnard ite in the manual, so why disable it? How odd.
