What are the variables the EBCM uses to determine when to activate AH? I seem to recall reading there were 3. SW position, current yaw rate and a 3rd. Think its throttle but not sure.

Thanks

I dont think there is a lat g sensor, but it feels like it. I can get it to kick in while I am zig zagging while warming up Rs (i.e. no slip angle).
What are you planning to do with this info?

Yes, there is.

Here's an SAE paper on Active Handling. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2948023/cars/980233.pdf

I always confuse the lateral G and yaw sensors... but in a C5 one is glued to the passenger side floor and one is bolted to the center console support (behind the ashtray etc.)

I believe the lateral G sensor is along the centerline of the car (the one behind the ash tray).
