DSC: Dynamic 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 current driving condition of the vehicle is detected by the dynamic stability control (DSC) by evaluation of the sensor signal. This driving condition is compared with the setpoint values determined using a calculation model. Advantage: In this way, the system recognizes unstable driving conditions. In the case of deviations that are above a control threshold stored in the DSC control unit, the vehicle is stabilized. The stabilization (within physical boundaries) is achieved by reducing the engine performance and individual braking of wheels. DSC intervention override the functions ABS and ASC. The DSC function can be deactivated using a button.
