Walt, as far as I would know there is nothing on the outside showing if a car is equipped with stability control. There might possibly be something on the dash that shows this, a warning light or small badge somewhere inside the car. Other than that you'll have to check the owners manual to see how each option is indentified in the car. On most cars with ASR or traction control and ABS, stability control is also part of the system since it works with the ABS 69 280 SEL 120,000 Miles 72 350SL 108,000 Miles 2004 VW Passat 4 Motion 1999 Mazda Miata -----Original Message----- From: dave walton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Mercedes mailing list <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Fri, 30 Sep 2005 12:03:47 -0400 Subject: [MBZ] Stability Control?
The 99 E-Class came standard with traction control (except 4-matic) and shows "Stability Control" as an option on the E300 and E320. Anyone know how to tell if a car has the Stability Control option by looking at it?
