Vsc On All Iq Models?

November 17, 2012

Dear iQ owners, please let me know if all 2009 and 2010 models had VSC (ESC)? I want to buy this car: http://www.rossiniau...OPATENTATO.html but the seller says the car has no VSC. On photo number 34 a button can be seen which I don't know what it does; is it a traction control or also stability control? Many thanks for help.

According to the UK sales brochure I have here all the iQ models are fitted with VSC (vehicle stability control) and TRC (traction control) as standard.

I have an iQ3 and have that same switch next to the gear lever so I reckon that car has VSC fitted.

Nice looking car too. :)

Oh, According to the handbook pressing that switch turns the VSC off and pressing and holding it for 3 seconds also turns the traction control off. There are warning lights on the dash to tell you it is turned off and it automatically returns to being on next time you turn the engine off and start it again.

Craig is spot on with the information he has given here. Our iQ is the same colour as the one you 'must' choose. I like the fact your's is an auto, even though I prefer our manual 1.0 basic iQ 1 version. Just a couple of pics of our car.

Why thank you very much David. So kind. They are without a doubt the best pictures I have of our car, but then they would be as a professional photographer, John Colley, took them. I'm still trying to get such good shots, but without a studio...

This is as close as I can get to leaves and trees. Aside from the last two. The first one was taken not long after we got the car, on a visit to Lake Vyrnwy in Wales. Nice place to go for a quiet day and if you're up for it, you can cycle/walk around the 12 mile (around it that is) lake. Cycles for bikests can be hired at the cafe near the 'Dam' end of the lake.
