I don't intend to turn mine off, but it's been suggested to me that it will be too intrusive if pressing on.

Anyone have any experience with this?
Do you mean in sport+ mode or full dsc off?

The sport+ mode just give you a bit more wheel spin and tail movement when you feel like being 'spirited' but corrects itself in the end without leaving you in a tree.

I haven't played around with full traction off yet but I imagine it will probably let you get very close to full control but my dealer told me that its not 100% off as a few older m owners have got themselves into a lot of trouble with full nannies off so BMW changed the setting for the newer cars to leave a bit on all the time.
