dunno bout ars but vw's asr button is the anti slip regulation (traction control)
traction control
by ASR do you mean Area Specific Resistance?
ASR or (Acceleration Slip Regulation) also known as traction control toggle switch, allowing you do enable or disable the feature
On the dashboard, right next to the power seat button.
The asr button stands for Anti Spin Regulation and uses the abs system to assist pulling away on slipery surfaces by putting the brake on of the wheel that is slipping hence all the drive goes to the wheel with grip.it also limits engine revs. By pressing the asr button you can turn this function off, giving the driver full control of the amount of wheel spin,and full throttle. Some trucks use this system and drivers use the asr button to disable the asr when pulling away on a a hill where they need to gain momentum with higher engine revs
"ASR" aka "anti-slip-reduction" ecu will cut power from going to wheels when it detects whell slippage in snow-sand etc.........ok?
ASR, (Acceleration Slip Regulation)
It is the "Anti Slip Regulator". Its a form of traction control.
ABS = Anti-lock Braking System ASR = Acceleration Slip Regulation
The ASR, or Acceleration Slip Regulator, commonly known as "Traction Control" is (does) regulation for the traction of the car. Like the nickname implies, the ASR "button" (not botton, learn how to spell) controls traction to make sure the tires don't spin while taking off from a stop.
The Anti Slip Regulator (ACR) stops power to the wheels when they spin, for example on loose gravel.
