Remove Torque limiter Via Vag-Com (How To)

[0bLiViOuS]

VAG you are a god. Gotta love GIAC for the support as well! I don't know how many complaints I've seen about this so this is awesome. I'm going out to do it now and will test it with the wifey in the car later tonight haha.

Glad to see the Mustang hasn't pulled you away entirely from us

Game changer! Props to GIAC and Rich! *thumbs up*

Can anyone w/OBD11 try this out? This is really the one thing I hate about the car is all the damn nannies, this is great news!

Done!!

For those with OBDeleven, Starting vibration reduction is in control unit 03 - Brake 1.

I already did the ESC off mod and I have a DSG tune, my only problem was on launches. Still didn't feel like domping a clutch on a MT. Will try a launch tomorrow!!

EDIT: I didn't touch "Torque limitation", it was already deactivated.

Am I the only one that thinks this is essentially just for burnouts? For launches it's not good to just spin the wheels the whole time as you're not actually accelerating as fast as you can. And around the track, well I thought most people like to stick with ESC in Sport mode if I remember correctly. Am I crazy?

SWEEET! Thank you for trying this Bawlti! I'd give you reps if I could! I need to buy OBDeleven like yesterday!

will this mess with a DSG tune?

I tried on my obd11 and it only allowed me to put starting vibration reduction to normal...not deactivated.....

Nah even when the wheels don't lose traction it will cut the power which is the problem. Usually if I let the wheel spin a bit I WON'T get intervention. I attribute this to torque limit not being hit when spinning (i.e. like revving in neutral so no load). I rarely had it intervene on me though compared to some people who would always have trouble.

As an update, I just went for a drive and couldn't get the nanny to kick in so I think it worked like I said above though, I didn't have too much trouble with it originally

This will work great with slicks or radials

Worldpacgti did you do this?

You still need to code your traction control if you have not done that yet.

This may be a prerequisite before being able to deactivate starting vibration? Try to PM Bawlti and pick his brains some?

 

[moveingfaster]

Tried this just now, it would only left me change it to "normal" not "deactivate" anyone know why?

My traction control is already deactivated....

Huh, idk how Bawlti did it then, you'll have to ask him. I will try this myself once my OBDeleven dongle comes in.

 

[Bawlti]

It's weird.

Anyone else with OBDeleven managed to do it like me?

 

[Bawlti]

I did it pretty straight forward like I did all my other tweaks:
Brake 1 (03) > Adaptation > Starting vibration reduction > Deactivated

I know there was different ways to turn off ESC. Maybe it has something to do with this. Otherwise, maybe my DSG tune?

 

[VWGTI]

Mine only shows normal, strong, and maximum. Help?
