Default Turn ESP off as default?

Had ESP / ABS / air bags off via fuse 11, on my 2006 A4 3.2 Quattro for winter.

Summer now and ABS is safe to use again, but having to press ESP button everytime I get in car is a pain.

Sorry I drive hard, and really don't like ESP kicking in all the time.

Anyway to set ESP to "off" as default when car starts up?

Believe I have been through all the screens, and thought I had lastest code list.... don't see anything.

Thanks

No known way. Especially since I think you have a Bosch 8.0!

Default Well that sucks :(

At least you can turn the ESP off, that is why I left the BMW 330XI at the dealership.

Guess I'll make a pulse delay circuit, figure 20 seconds should do it.

Default May not need a complicated circuit

On some VW's people accomplished this with a simple capacitor at the switch. Unfortunately, I don't remember the value.
