Trailer Stability 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 trailer stabilization control detects seesaw motion of a trailer around the vertical axis. The system works as of a speed of approx. 65 kph with the electrical connector for trailer occupied. The dynamic stability control (DSC) monitors the yawing motion of the vehicle with the help of the DSC sensors. If the limit value is exceeded on the swinging trailer, the engine output is reduced. The DSC also automatically brakes all 4 wheels. With disabled or defective DSC, the trailer stabilization control is also disabled.
