esc

i hate driving my rspec and hitting the pedal only to about hit my forehead on the steering wheel when the esc kicks in. How do i completely disable it.

I just wanted to post this and see if any other new 5.0 RSPEC owners have used the ESC button. I was driving mine home from buying it and was checking everything out. Ipulled up to a stop light, pushed the ESC button and mashed the gas and voila, it lit up the tires. My 2011 4.6 didn't do this...

my r-spec has 800 miles on it. have noticed that when accelerating with esc "off", from a dead stop, 25% of the time, i have a condition that appears to be complete shutdown of of fuel or electrics shutdown. condition last for no more than 2 secs. but obviously should not occur. have not...

New to a 2012 Genesis. I am used to anytime I can break traction and the ESC/TCS gets engaged in other recent cars, to get a flashing warning yellow light on the dashboard of some design or the other. I know I have gotten my rear tires to spin and break traction in the rain in a number of...

After being caught in the snow today, I spent more time analyzing the ESC. I drove the car both with and without the ESC off. Although the ESC light flashes even when it is turned off, it is NOT the computer synchronized ESC which controls ABS, Traction control and power to the drive wheels. The...

YES ! I also was very happy the way the car went in the heavy snow storm we had in nyc last weekend.... not 4 wheel drive but it worked just fine for a rear wheel drive car and others got stuck , spin outs , etc.. my genny kept flashing esc and got me home. safe & sound ...I was 20 miles away...

ESC Technology is Amazing Regarding my other thread on ESC, I have plenty of experience in both rear wheel drive and winter driving, I have also taught many to drive in the snow. Therefore I was curious to learn first hand how the Genesis handled in the snow mostly because of all the negative...

The snow season has arrived in Minnesota and I am getting used to driving the Genesis in slippery conditions. Just a couple of inches of snow will send the ESC into action. I have found that the car is far easier to control without the ESC on. This is for driving around town from 0-40 mph. If I...

I may have found a way to turn ESC OFF completely WITHOUT loosing GPS, speedometer, etc... I say that because today I did it.:p The only thing I noticed was the cruise control did not work anymore and I could NOT put the ESC back on. (It always stays OFF) I had to shut the car down and restart...

Our Genesis Sedans come with the SACHS ASD Suspension System, which is used by several car manufacturers in their higher end vehicles. The reason it seems that a lot of makers have gone with this system is that SACHS tailors the suspension to the specifications/demands of each auto maker for...

I'm trying to better understand the operation of the Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system. I know that its basic function is to perform throttle control and differential braking to keep the car from sliding, but I don't understand the details. I have seen a number of messages in this...

A search for ESC yields no responses since the search term is too short. This morning after driving the car (3.8) for a few minutes and shutting it off to run an errand, it took much longer than normal to restart after pressing the start button, probably 4-5 seconds of turning over before it...

Does anybody know if there is a way of completely turning off the Electronic Stability Control? I know there is a switch to the left of the steering wheel, but it just changes how quickly the ESC gets involved, it still won't let you tail slide the car under power :D. I was at a track recently...

I had an odd experience this morning. After refueling, I started my one month old Genesis (4.6L Tech Package) and the dash warning lights all flashed as usual while doing the typical systems check after starting the engine. However, The ESC light stayed on, and the car would not shift out...

My wife has had the car for a little over 6 weeks and the ABS, ESC lights have come on about 5 times. We finally were able to take it to the dealer and they kept the car overnight because the 1 tech that was there didnt know how to work the computer they hook up to the Genesis. We get a call...

Okay, Last night we here in So Cal had our first big rain storm of the season. So me, attempting my best drifting impersonation on a wet and empty piece of orange county's finest roadway, shut off the ESC. Making sure there is absolutely nobody around, I put my foot in it while taking a...
