On the center console on the right (under the radio) you see a button with Asc. If press on that button you turn off Asc

@@zlover7777 This absolutely does not turn off ASC. Turning it off will give you a little less traction control, but its still very much there. You can turn ASC on (no traction light on gauge cluster), then press and hold it for 20 seconds, and this will turn it ALMOST all the way off. You will know you have it turned most of the way off, because the traction control light on the gauge will be on, and will not turn off until you restart the vehicle. But it is still very much on, perfect for driving IMO, but if you're trying to slide or do donuts or whatever, really the only way is pop under the hood real quick, and disconnect where it connects to the throttle body. Sensor and throttle wire (at least on mine). This (obviously) turns it all the way off, and will throw a generic traction control code.

@@sahzhree7757 Hmm that's interesting. So, just to make sure. If I hold it for 20 seconds it will be more off than if I hold it for 3 seconds?

@@zlover7777 not sure, my car has 3 stages basically. (1998 Z3 2.8). Pressing it, barely does anything. Pressing and holding for an extended period of time (seems to be 20 secs for me), and completely unplugging it. Your car may be different and only require 3 seconds. I just know if I press and hold for a while, it won't be able to be turned back on without an ignition cycle.

@@sahzhree7757 Thank you for commenting! I have 1997 1.8, I will try it out when I have it back😁👍🏻

There is a way to change to miles to kms or kms to miles... Need a computer to interface a cable to obd2. You will need to access from F2 to enter the BIOS to see the EPROM-ROM it a program memory inside you will see all the menu and change it... Other wise cann experiment with a scanner can read the menu... It is the same thing. F2 not enter to tje bios of the computer laptop.... With the interface you will access direct the obd2.

Yes, I still have it! That's awesome glad to hear another Z3'er with a DASC. I am currently prepping for a clutch job!

Mine stays illuminated as well. Sadly is a common issue for 90's era BMW's it seems. Not sure if there is any quick fix or coding for this :/

Mine is always on ( when ignition is on) but when a passenger is sitting in the seat a seatbelt is added across the little person Doo hickey..

Bmw have a error in the srs sensor. Common problem is the passanger seat sensor is broken or the seat belt sensor is broken. Need to repair to turn off light.

That is awesome! You did so great!!

AWOL interesting, what year and model is your car?

Thanks for watching!

Ironwolf643 Hope it works for you!

Dan Taylor No OBD tool or computer needed! Stick with the menus shown in the video and there are no permanent effects!

I don't remember any clunking, however under heavy load I occasionally will get a clunk. I have no doubt my flex disk is due for a change!

kurtis mcneese hey bro !

Rudy Alan interesting did it read out “test” along with numbers. It may be because your z3 is a post facelift.

Didnt work on my 99

Chunyu 99 disable the lock in test 15 then access test 08. It’ll then display kph where your odometer usually resides!
