Best Answer

When starting off in heavy snow or ice or slush use dtc. Unlike dsc, dtc increases power but at the expense of some stability. Dec yields more stability but less engine output during slips and so on. If you are stuck in snow with the tires spinning, activate etc for a boost in power that may help you start moving and ice moving and on the road, you may wish to go back to dec.

Does DTC need to be turned on when driving fast down a dry highway on a 2006 BMW 3-series?

on that car, the dynamic tractoin control is automatically always on. you can turn it off by pressing the dtc button and a traction control symbol will appear on your instrument cluster. for normal driving, for 99% of customers the dtc should always be on all the time. just for the sheer purpose many people have no idea how to drive a car properly and need computer assist modules to control the car for them.
