Default Electronic Stabilization Program - activate?

Anybody ever looked into activating the ESP feature on an A6? Seems like most of the hardware is already on the car...is it just a programming change? I'd love to have it on my 2000 2.8 but it's not installed...

Takes completely different components for ESP.

Default You are probably lacking the yaw sensors

to help keep the car going down the intended path.

Also, the logic in the computer to apply brakes at certain wheels at the right time probably is not there either.
