Traction control
Is there a way to keep the traction control off? After I press the button and cause the car to slide or spin the rear wheels the traction control turns back on.
Thanks

haha, had this problem n looked it up in the manual..jus be at a stop and hold the button down as they stated above ..traction n stability control are turned off. if only traction control off, stability will sense the need for traction with movement/speed and turn back on automatically

It's all about safety and maintaning vehicle control. Feel good my 06 makes it difficult to disable. For my 350, VIP everyday - no games.

"For 2006 IS models, the stability control system/traction control system can be disabled through non-conventional methods by using a code during engine start. This involves starting the car with the parking brake engaged, releasing the parking brake, pushing the brake pedal twice, holding it on the second push, engaging the parking brake twice, holding it on the second, and repeating until the vehicle traction light appears on the dash. This will effectively disable the system until the car is turned off."
