Don't mean to hijack the thread but I wonder if there is a way to permanently delete all TC/AH/ABS systems from C5's. I'm not talking about disabling and living with error codes on the dash. I mean completely; no codes or other issues. I don't have problems with mine but these cars are not getting any younger. Someone must have thought of this.
I drove a C3 for years without TC/AH/ABS and survived just fine, I actually had lots of fun. Driving a C5 without them wouldn't bother me at all, I just wouldn't want to look at the lights or deal with codes.

Considering I grew up with muscle cars and never had TC or EBCM I have no use for it since I don't track.
It's a cool little novelty item but unnecessary as far as I'm concerned. I have lived 56 years driving in snow and rain and to be honest when I have had it engage in other cars it caused me to stop in a longer time frame than I could have stopped without it.
Those are my experiences and my opinions on Electronic braking. It's a problem waiting to happen.
Mine is out and other than that annoying light I don't miss it one bit.

so that is purely hypothetical) or those early mornings on a nice twisty road where you just want to drive freely without having the encumberance of abs/atc/ahc.
