M Dynamic Mode Explained

austrum · 03-17-2022, 10:31 AM

I have a G80 Comp RWD w/o the M Drive Professional package and I want to make sure I'm understanding MDM correctly. Is it basically a more fun version of traction control without turning it entirely off? Watching this video it looks like that's the case but want to make sure I'm properly understanding this!

That is my understanding as well. It allows more slip angle before intervention.

Yes, MDM allows for more slip before intervening. M Drive Professional lets you adjust it even further. Without it, you are using only 1 setting.

MDM Uses M Traction Control Levels 4-7 for slip control based on a number of parameters, PLUS brake interventions based on vehicle yaw control.

For vehicles equipped with the 10 levels M Traction Control, the driver can select Traction Control levels 0 (off) to 10 for slip control, but DSC must be off (no yaw control or brake intervention, only engine torque control).
