I was using DATEN files v45 so upgraded to v53.3 and was able to enable TDR. Now the DTC light comes on with a single button press of the DSC button. Many thanks goes out to Meeko for posting this valuable information to enable this mode. Now I need to experiment with the new mode and determine how it intervenes.Meeko said:

Hello all, good thread and thanks to all contributors for taking the time to post up the information.
The DSC has been something on my ///MR that has always annoyed me. I find it way too intrusive.
When powering out of corners with some steering lock on, it almost always heavily moderates any command for high power and then eventually feeds the power back in far too slowly and late for my liking.
I am reluctant to switch it off on the road as DSC can pay dividends, especially when the speeds are high and everything can happen very quickly.
So I have just successfully coded this option and will report back with my findings.
Loving the indian summer but I now have a reason to look forward to a bit of rain.
Anyone near to SE London / NW Kent area who wants a hand enabling this on an ///M, give me a shout.

UPDATE:
Gave it some beans in hot, dry conditions today and it is a lot better. The DSC still cuts in and IMO is not ideal but it seems to allow the rear wheels to "spin" a little and the LSD to lock up without cutting the power like before
So far, I am very impressed with this "mod".
Interested to see how it is in other road conditions.

UPDATE:
Have been driving with this for a few weeks ago and I am loving it. :driving:
In the wet, it makes a big difference meaning you are able to get the power down, especially feeding power in after the apex much better than before.

I don't think this would be possible on the Z4M because of the different engine management to the E46.
The MSS70 used in the Z4M was never used in conjunction with the SMG gearbox. It was the E46 SMG gearbox variants which had the shift light function.

Sorry to not having seen this thread until now.
You guys managed a way to get the m-track mode.
I am the german guy who has it for a good while now.

Excellent. Thank you very much for finding out how to make it possible and furthermore for sharing the information.
Makes the car sooo much better and in my opinion is how the DSC should have been.

Bumping the thread back to life lol
I just attempted to code mine and like someone else in this thread I got stuck at step 10. I have ncs expert 4.01 and daten files 50.2. Am I editing step 10 in the actual ncs expert itself or...? Cheers

Figured it out! Was in the wrong "expert mode" as there were multiple profiles! Cheers for your guide meeko!

By the way, if anyone wanted help, I'm in north London and happy to oblige 
Finally got around to coding my car today to get rid of a few annoyances, also coded the m-track mode whilst there (thanks meeko!)...Just been doing a few 'test' runs, it's great, why they didn't enable it on the car in the first place I'll never know. I usually drive my car with dsc off as I find it far too nannying in it's default mode, in the wet on roads I'll most definitely be using the m-track mode now.
Ooooooo - now *this* is interesting...!
What we need is a list of the "where's" of folks who can do this and how many beer tokens needed to get it done.
I'm IN if anyone who can do this is heading to Oulton Park anytime... (I live 2 miles away) so happy to meet you there and cross your palm with silver... Equally happy to meet up with someone within a radius of 4 hours of Cheshire to get this done...
