Traction control

First off, i apologize if this is considered the wrong section for this. I have a '12 328i modern line, so it has tree hugger mode, comfort mode and sport mode. No sport plus. From what i have read on other posts you cannot completely disable traction control in sport plus mode, or it will turn it back to sport mode. Since i dont have a sport plus mode when i try to completely disable it, it goes back into comfort mode. Is there any way around this so i can have it fully disabled and be in sport mode? Thanks.

long press the DTC button for 5 secs. That will result in everything being turned off. You may still have to knock the shifter to the left to get into DS mode for more aggressive shift pattern. Then you can go out and burn some serious rubber.

Sport + mode is Sport mode with DTC off. If you do not have sport mode as you said you can not be in sport mode with DTC off. It will kick you back to comfort mode.

I haven't even ventured a little into coding and may never but maybe it's possible.
