Odd Traction Control Incident.
Discussion
I recently had to negotiate a steep,narrow, cobbled driveway. I was told I needed to keep my speed up or the engine would stall, which was somewhat emotional as I had to go round a 90degree corner.
Anyway, I did stall.
To cut a long story short, I eventually realised that the traction control was detecting wheelspin on the slippery cobblestones and cutting engine power, causing the engine to stall.
I tried again with TC switched completely off, and this time, I could drive up without stalling, but with a short burst of wheelspin.
Odd but fun.
