Default Snow guys, have you tried this...

1) Find yourself a nice, snow covered road

2) Push the traction control button momentarily to disengage just the traction control (and not stability control).

3) Starting in 2nd gear, put the pedal to the floorboard and hold it there for several gears.

The superior electronic stability control of the Audi keeps the car straight, the engine screams, and the car accelerates like a friggin' Polaris snowmobile (with winter tires, of course). What a blast! I'm not sure why I haven't done this before, probably because the three other cars I've owned with stability control will put you in the ditch if this is tried...

Default Are you getting throttle cut to keep the wheels from spinning?

A lot of the help is coming from the EDL which works up to 50mph
