USP Presents MK7 Golf Traction Control Button Kits!

The traction control system on modern cars limits tire spin by reducing power output to the wheels when tire spin is sensed. In certain situations such as driving in the rain this may be beneficial. However, in other situations such as driving in the snow or under hard acceleration, traction control can be detrimental.

On the 2015+ Golf MK7 models, Volkswagen does not give the driver the ability to turn traction control off. By not being able to turn off traction control it is nearly impossible to push the car to its potential in 1st and 2nd gears. Driving the car in a race environment is also not possible because the car’s computer system will drastically reduce power output once it senses the wheels spinning. Perhaps the biggest challenge comes in winter when snow begins to fall. Without having the ability to deactivate traction control and let the wheels spin, you may find yourself stuck on a snowy or icy road.

MK7 Golf owners, here is your change to take control of your traction. USP Motorsports has created an easy to install, plug and play kit to install a traction control switch on your MK7 Golf. The kit uses a factory Volkswagen traction control button and includes a complete plug and play wire harness that requires NO splicing, tapping, or soldering. Installation is straight forward and can be accomplished in approximately 30 minutes using the included installation instructions. Once installed you can easily turn traction control on or off with the push of a button. This kit is fully compatible on both 1.8T and TDI models.

Review: Saying Goodbye to the CC V6

For all its size and its global reach, Volkswagen is still, in many ways, a deeply human company. There was, for instance, the Bugatti Veyron an ego project if ever there was one. Then the purchase of Ducati, a move most called folly. And then there was the Phaeton, the Volkswagen that most folks can’t afford. Not only were these moves all strange, I’m sure that they made VW’s accountants furious. None of them made good business sense, but they were all deeply interesting and they all are evidence of the heart that beats at the center of VW. Among these follies is the CC, a car that everyone agrees is rakishly handsome, but that no one really wanted to buy. The car couldn’t last, but the world is brighter for its having been in it. With the approach debut of the Arteon, it seems like a good time to look back on its sadly departing predecessor. The version I drove, because I live in Canada, is a V6 Wolfsburg Edition, which apparently isn’t available in the States. Nor is the V6, not as...

More 3.0-Liter TDI Settlement Details Expected by January 31

Volkswagen and the TDI Plaintiff’s Steering Committee were in court today for another status conference following the agreement in principal reached earlier this week. Little new information was given at the conference held before Judge Charles Breyer today, but the court ordered the parties to develop a formal settlement agreement, class action notices, and a class notice plan by January 31, 2017. For now, though, owners still don’t know how much to expect in compensation. Elizabeth Cabraser, lead Counsel for the Plaintiff’s Steering Committee reaffirmed in a statement today that the compensation would be “substantial.” The potential cost to Volkswagen is widely reported to exceed $1 billion, though, with an additional $225 million going into an environmental trust to help offset excess emissions. Buy back offers are still only expected for the oldest 20,000 of the roughly 80,000 VW Group vehicles sold in America with the 3.0-liter TDI engine. Those vehicles are mostly SUVs, like ...
