    CVT owners: Hold the selector between N and D for about 5 seconds.

    Turns traction and stability control fully off. You'll also get two "swerve" lights on the dash when doing this. Will remain off until next ignition cycle.

    I discovered this by accident/boredom.

    isn't there any possibility to turn either the stabilitycontrol or the tractioncontrol of on manualdrive cars sold in the Europe?? I find it strange since the tractioncontrol may not be a good thing in ex. deep, heavy snow..
