Hi, just settling into the CSL now, but would not mind a little bit more info on the M-track Steering wheel Button.
Does it work in the same way as the M Dynamic mode in the later E9X M3s?
Thanks Tom

When you press it you turn into a racing god!!!

As far as I am aware it allows more slip, like a halfway house between traction on and off.

I am sure someone will come up with the percentage. Great for road use.

I think its 15% Billy but sure I'll be corrected if wrong

From bmwmregistry.com :-

What is the M Differential Lock and how does it work?
The M Differential Lock, fitted as standard equipment to every E46 M3, is an advanced version of the traditional limited slip differnetial. Though still entirely mechanical in operation, the M Differential Lock is activated when there is a difference in rotational speed between the two rear wheels. This difference pressurizes a viscous silicon fluid, which then operates a multi-disc clutch that directs more power to the wheel with the greatest traction. http://www.bmwmregistry.com/images/spacer.gif

Use Mtrack for the first few trackday laps then turn off DSC completely. It soon holds you back if your on it.

Not a bad mode for wet, if your not a drifting God that is. ;)
