do they? or not? i dont have a button or anything of that sort, but i could have sworn on my original window sticker that it says i have it... so do i have a button somewhere that i dont know of? or is it always on? whats the deal...

 

BTW : its a 2001 2.8 quattro manual with pretty much every option available.

 

yeah i was wondering the same thing.. i have the same as you except mines blue lol, i was looking for the answer and came across this on msnautos
http://autos.msn.com/research/vip/Sp...l=A4&trimid=-1
its a standard option?

 

if its on my 2.8 12v 97 i wanna know how to take it off

 

-Electronic traction control via differential

 

I was wondering the same thing.

On my last my second 2.8 which wasn't quattro I had a button next to the hazar one that allowed me to take it out.

First 2.8 quattro didnt have the button and right now my 1.8t q same thing no button.

Im guessing that with the quattro its always on ?

 

ya the quesiton is how da **** do u disable it

 

It's part of the antilock break system in the control modual, if you have it there would be a light that say ESP light up at startup during the systems precheck. Iwas toldthere was supposed to be a button to disable it. I don't know but my 1999.5 1.8t doesn't have it.

 

dang, i wanna disable it and see what happens, lol... i wish i had an owners manual so i could check... i lost my owners manual the first day i had the car... i rolled up a little something on it and have never seen it since.. .lol

 

on the 2001 its ESP and to disable it for test purposes onlyremove fuse #42 the abs light will probably throw a wobbler but will clear when the fuse is replaced, earlier cars will have a fuse for the T/C ( if it has ) consider fitting a bridge switch between the polls of the fuse so you can switch it off and on ( also goes for the newer ones ) that's what the much older Audi's had for off road
