Traction Control

first time I turned it off, it remained off until I started reaching a speed of about 20kms (I think).

What's the method of disabling traction control in speeds higher then 20kms?
thanks.

To completely turn off traction control, you have to press and hold it for like 5-7 sec. You will see traction contol and VSC turn off. Then both systems will be disabled until you reactivate them.

put your car in park and press the VSD botton for 3 seconds.

Actually any gear, as long as the car is not moving.
