Default Found new way to use ECT/snow

Actually its the only use I've found for this feature. We all know how a pita it is sometimes to drive onto the ramps. Afraid you might drive the car right off. Well, turn the ECT/snow on and give it a try, come back and post.

I guess the SNOW would help. The pedal is much stiffer so you're less likely to jump the gun?

Or learn how to drive?

Yup. I can drive fine, at least I think I can. I'm just saying it makes it easier. Kinda like driving a manual up the ramps. The throttle is easier to control.
