Default ABC shown on Speedo Info
I was driving to work the other day and as I neared work and went around a sharp corner at a speed above its design speed and I saw my Speedo Info change from Average MPG to some kind of short infomation that started with ABC. It went away just as fast as it appeared so I had little to no time to read it, I was busy going around the corner. Anyone have an idea what it was telling me?

Thanks!

Most likely it said "ASC" That is the traction and stability control system kicking in to limit wheel spin.

ASC, that's it. I'm glad it saved my A$$.
