I made a quick video this afternoon showing how to use the advancetrac system in my 2010 mustang gt premium. A lot of people only think there is traction control on and off, but there is also advancetrac off and sport mode. This video shows the different modes and how to put the system into each mode.

i hate all the silly new car options. i wouldnt have that crap on my fox if it were free

 

lol i love all of the options. the advancetrac is great. i turn it off 95% of the time, but when its slightly wet outside i use the sport mode, and when its snowed or icy at all i just leave it all on.

 

For those that don't have the information center on their cars, it still works the same way, you just don't get any messages. (I've got the base GT, didn't want all the other bells and whistles, it already has too many.)

I usually drive with all of it turned off, mine's got the 3.31 gears, so with everything turned on, it's extremely tame. (That, and from a stoplight it feels like the computer is fighting me, it's hard to get the car moving smoothly with it turned on, of course, every stoplight in this town has an incline, so that could be part of it.)

In rain, snow, ice, or on gravel, I leave it on, it's great to have in those environments.

 

good video... but advancetrac isn't necessarily a new fandangled thing ford put into place... my 2005 Lincoln LS has it lol, the only thing they changed with the new mustang is sport mode

 

Yep. The video is just for people who don't know all of the settings.

 

hope that helps someone.

 

Thanks for posting this.
