ESP question
Question, on my 2 previous cars, a 997 and 987, the ESP system (PSM) had a great feature... when you swithed it off, it as only off until you once again pressed the brakes, and then off again as soon as you released the brake pedal. so in theory it would step in and help you if you felt the need to break, actually activated by the ABS.., it knew you were in trouble.. genius..I think.. anyway my M3 E46 had no such system, nor any other car that I have had...
So question, when ESP is disengaged on a Xkr 2008, it is completely off all the time, or it is similar to the Porsche system?

Is DSC OFF a permanent setting?
On previous models, it is ON by default and can be switched OFF but will reset to the default ON next time the engine is started.
The XK Driver's Handbook doesn't make this clear (see section boxed in red on the first page below):

Thx for all the replies...
Will be on the skid pad/ ice & snow course in 2 weeks.. Will be fun to see just how much play there is with the TracDSC engaged, as well as to experience how the car behaves on a slippery surface, with and without the DSC..
Ps.. Still haven taken posession of the car ... Has not cleared the import authority and MOT yet... Wait is driving me crazy...
