M-track Steering wheel Button?
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. |

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. Pip |

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.
