    Offroad technology

    Hi guys

    Does anyone know where I can find out more about the Offroad Technology pack, what it does, how it works, when to use it, and when not to?

    Reason is, I have it on my Tig and was driving along some nice twisty muddy dirt roads this weekend. I wasn't sure whether it was safe to enable the offroad technology at the speeds I was driving and on simple dirt roads, or whether the technology is only for low speed technical terrain.

    My googling so far hasn't brought up much more than promo/marketing material.

    Thanks in advance

    When you leave the sealed road and get to mud or sand you should use it.

    If you're in really loose stuff make sure you turn the ESP OFF as well. Best info on this is at http://www.mytiguan.com/ see the items written by jjj of South Africa.
