Does someone know when BMW started offering traction control in the 3 series? I think it became standard by 1997. Did they offer it in the early 1990's on the 325 ?

Thanks!

i know it was not offered in the E30's from the early 90's, not sure about the E36's

My '92 325i (4-door sedan, 1st year of E36 body style) was not available with traction control.

I don't know when it became available or standard.

I believe the Traction Control (All Season Traction Control - ASC) has been around as an option for a few years before 1997, but came standard on the 3-series after that.

I just drove my new '97 328is home from Houston today. Thought I'd put my two cents in. Stoked? Yes I am!

Hope that helps!

Not sure if all E36 3-series had it or if it was optional....it does make a world of difference in Minnesota. I put some Blizzak LM-22's on the stock wheels and it's unstoppable in the winter.

my 94 325is has ASC traction control, newer models have DSC traction control

just FYI, in germany, 1991 was the first year for the e36!!!!!!!!!
