How to deactivate traction control in the Volkswagen Golf MK8

Model: Volkswagen Golf Golf 8, MK 8, Golf Viii - Years 2019-2026
Part: Onboard computer

In this video we can see how to deactivate the traction control on a Volkswagen Golf MK8: according to everyone it seems to be a rather complicated thing. From the multimedia screen we have to go to "vehicle" and the screen displays the car. We have to rotate it until we get to the back, then click on the brakes and from there enter the possible options and then deactivate it. However, there is a much shorter way to do this operation, through shortcuts: we slide the screen down, and we see four customizable options, within which we can insert any option. By pressing the square of the car, we will insert the ESC system in this one, holding it down and dragging it onto the car icon. In this way, every time we access the shortcuts, we will have access to the ESC.
