PTM Modes
I have a Z51 but can not find the PTM modes? All I can get by pressing the traction control off and stability is ESC competitive mode, I cannot switch to sport 1 sport 2 race etc?
I even tried to use the burn out mode by putting it in Drive, holding back both paddles, pushing the brake down, giving it gas and let go of the paddles and it just sits still?
Is my car cursed?

Yes, Turn selector to Track Mode then 2 presses to Traction control have the TC and ESC lights on display and it says ESC Competitive Mode.
When I try to turn the selector to get the other modes I get nothing?

Does your car have Mag ride? I believe it was an option and not standard on the Z51. If you can’t get to PTM then my guess is you don’t have it. I know you do have to hit the button twice really quick though. Even on my Z it can take me 2 times to get to it.

Also, jump to 9:30. I don’t own a C8, but he’s alluding to needing MSRC to have PTM. It sounds like no MSRC, you can enter Comp mode in Sport or Track. With MSRC you enter Comp mode from Sport or PTM from Track.

You have to have both Z51 and MSRC to have PTM:
B4Z Performance Traction Management
1 - Included and only available with (FE4) Z51 performance suspension with Magnetic Selective Ride Control.
