MSR: Engine drag torque control

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 45 other vehicles, including the 2016 BMW M5, 2016 BMW 550i xDrive, 2016 BMW 550i, 2016 BMW 535i xDrive, and 2016 BMW 535i. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The engine drag torque control (MSR) prevents the blocking tendency of the drive gear on smooth roadways. On downshifting or in the case of an abrupt load reversal (especially on a roadway with a low coefficient of friction), there is a danger that the drive gears block due to the engine drag torque. Via the wheel speed sensors, MSR detects the blocking tendency even as it is about to happen. MSR briefly reduces the engine drag torque by accelerating slightly. Advantage: The drive wheels retain their lateral stability in overrun mode.
