vehicle wheel brakes to assist the
driver in keeping the vehicle on the
intended path.
If cruise control is being used and
traction control or StabiliTrak begins
to limit wheel spin, cruise control will
disengage. Cruise control may be
turned back on when road
conditions allow.
Both systems come on
automatically when the vehicle is
started and begins to move. The
systems may be heard or felt while
they are operating or while
performing diagnostic checks. This
is normal and does not mean there
is a problem with the vehicle.
It is recommended to leave both
systems on for normal driving
conditions, but it may be necessary
to turn TCS off if the vehicle gets
stuck in sand, mud, ice, or snow.
SeeIf the Vehicle Is Stuck on
page 9-13 and“Turning the
Systems Off and On” later in this
section.
The indicator light for both systems
is in the instrument cluster. This
light will:
.Flash when TCS is limiting
wheel spin.
.Flash when StabiliTrak is
activated.
.Turn on and stay on when either
system is not working.
If either system fails to turn on or to
activate, a message displays in the
Driver Information Center (DIC),
and
dcomes on and stays on to
indicate that the system is inactive
and is not assisting the driver in
maintaining control. The vehicle is
safe to drive, but driving should be
adjusted accordingly. If
dcomes on and stays on:
1. Stop the vehicle.
2. Turn the engine off and wait 15 seconds.
3. Start the engine.
Drive the vehicle. If
dcomes on
and stays on, the vehicle may need
more time to diagnose the problem.
If the condition persists, see your
dealer.
Turning the Systems Off
and On
The button for TCS and StabiliTrak
is on the center console in front of
the shift lever.

{Caution
Attempting to shift when the drive
wheels are spinning and do not
have traction may cause damage
to the transmission. Damage
caused by misuse of the vehicle
is not covered by the vehicle
warranty. Do not attempt to shift
when the drive wheels do not
have traction.
Competitive Driving Mode (SS
and ZL1 Convertible Only)
Competitive Driving Mode allows full
engine power while the StabiliTrak
system helps maintain directional
control of the vehicle by selective
brake application. In this mode, TCS
is off and Launch Control is
available. Adjust your driving style
to account for the available engine
power. See“Launch Control (V8
with Manual Transmissions except
Z/28)” later in this section.
These lights are on when the
vehicle is in the Competitive
Driving Mode.
This optional handling mode can be
selected by quickly pressing the
TCS/StabiliTrak button on the
console two times. The appropriate
message displays in the Driver
Information Center (DIC). See Ride
Control System Messages on
page 5-38. When the TCS/StabiliTrak button is
pressed again, the TCS and
StabiliTrak systems are on. The
appropriate message displays
briefly in the DIC.
Performance Traction
Management (PTM) (ZL1
Coupe and Z/28 Only)
PTM integrates the TCS,
StabiliTrak, and Selective Ride
Control systems to provide
improved and consistent
performance when cornering. The
amount of available engine power is
based on the mode selected, track
conditions, driver skill, and the
radius of each corner.

9-42 Driving and Operating
These lights are on when the
vehicle is in the PTM Mode.
This optional handling mode can be
selected by quickly pressing the
TCS/StabiliTrak button on the
console two times. The appropriate
message displays in the DIC. See
Ride Control System Messages on
page 5-38.
To experience the performance
benefit of this system, after entering
a curve and at the point where the
driver would normally start to
increase acceleration, the
accelerator pedal can be fully
pressed. The PTM system will
modify the level of engine power for
a smooth and consistent corner exit.
ZL1 Shown, Z/28 Similar
The PTM system contains five
modes. To select a mode while in
PTM, press the Selective Ride
Control/PTM −TOUR or +SPORT
button on the center console. Scroll
up or down through modes 1–5 by
pressing the −TOUR or +SPORT
button.
The following is a DIC display
description and the recommended
usage of each mode.

pedal to wide open throttle.
A smooth, quick release of the
clutch, while maintaining the fully
pressed accelerator pedal, will
manage wheel slip. Complete shifts
are described inManual
Transmission on page 9-34.
After the vehicle is launched, the
system continues in Competitive
Driving Mode or PTM.
Competitive Driving Mode, PTM,
and Launch Control are systems
designed for a closed course race
track and not intended for use on
public roads. The systems are not
intended to compensate for lack of
driver experience or familiarity with
the race track.
ZL1 Coupe Only
Use mode 5 for the most consistent
performance during drag strip use.
Limited-Slip Rear Axle
Vehicles with a limited-slip rear axle
can give more traction on snow,
mud, ice, sand, or gravel. When
traction is low, this feature allows
the drive wheel with the most
traction to move the vehicle. The
limited-slip rear axle also gives the
driver enhanced control when
cornering hard or completing a
maneuver, such as a lane change.
For vehicles with limited slip
differential, driven under severe
conditions, the rear axle fluid should
be changed. See Competitive
Driving Mode on page 9-40 and
Maintenance Schedule on
page 11-2.
Selective Ride Control
ZL1 Only
The vehicle has a ride control
system called Magnetic Selective
Ride Control. The system provides
the following performance benefits:
.Reduced Impact Harshness
.Improved Road Isolation
.Improved High-Speed Stability
.Improved Handling Response
.Better Control of Body Ride
Motions
The Selective Ride buttons are on
the center console. Press to select
the suspension of your choice. The
indicator light will illuminate the
current suspension setting.
TOUR: Use for normal city and
highway driving. The −TOUR button
selects a suspension and Electric
Power Steering (EPS) calibration
that provides a smooth, soft ride.
