Default Never saw this before

When I started the car this morning, the DIC flashed a message that said the active handling was warming up. It eventually said the AH was warm and the message went out. I guess this is normal but I've had the car for 20 months and put 19k on the odometer and this is the first time I've seen this. Anybody else have this happen?

I've had it happened probably twice. Nothing to worry about. Check the owner's manual for more info.

I've seen it several times too. Somewhere I read the exact conditions under which this occurs, but now I don't remember. It's not an indication of a problem. If I think about it I'll try to find it in the service manual tonite.

Seems like I read a post where someone had observed where this occurs when you start the car and the front wheels are not pointed straight ahead, or the car is shut off while still in motion. The system recalibrates during this time.

Was this the case when it happened to you?
