I've noticed I can chirp the left tyre when turning left for about 20m with no interupption, but make a similar style right turn and the TC come in before as much as a squeak from the tyres.

I have never had TC or ASC activate on dry bitumen roads.
Today for no good reason. I did hard acceleration with 2 wheels on bitumen and 2 in gravel on the side of the road. I could feel TC working and see light flashing. It didn't interfere with the acceleration or suffer from this so called turbo lag which I don't seem to suffer from. Same thing doing hard starts on gravel. TC works and it accelerates well.

On my MY15 the ASC steps in all too easily in the wet, a highway I have to cross each day I usually turn off the ASC just to get across it without the ASC stepping in ,cutting power and leaving me crawling across the intersection waiting to be T boned.
