Was it only the Auto edition EG6 that came out with TCS or was it in the manual too? I'd find out myself but i've got no chance of reading my manual. All i know is that its got Prudy pictures.

you just use the switch that came with your front cut?

I was just wondering coz all the prudy pictures in my manual only show auto clusters and no manual and the info on TCS goes.

:roll:

obviously an educated guess........

IF anything Danny , master - such a thing would help accelleration -(and quite the opposite in decelleration) limiting wheelspin AND putting the power to the ground more efficiently ?
So does TCS equal more power then ? Oh dear...

bit of a both i'd say..

the sensors pick up a wheel spin and kill the revs untill wheel sping is stopped...

and educated..guess :roll:

Sure you've got it Danny?......after all you were meant to have LSD tooo ;) hehehe

Depending on the system it can be quite good. I drove a Barina SRI with traction control and it cut the revs just enough to stop wheelsping without sacrificing launch speed.

Never drivern a civic with TC though
