Fully turning traction control off

So i picked up my second f10 m5. On this one i noticed i can't get traction control to fully turn off as i could in my last m5. Holding the button down lights up the mdm and traction offm lights but I can't fully spin my wheels. Why's it different?

mine is the exact same... has the transmission or dme's ever been replaced in yours? . im glad to hear someone else with this.

a tuner i spoke to said he could possibly code that in but he'd have to look at my data and could possibly idk..

if u find out let me know.

Im not sure on the possibility of work or replacement. But my last one could be turned off which is why i hit a wall at over 100 lol, but i still need to turn it off.
I also noticed i can't activate the launch. maybe something to do with that. I wouldn't think launch is an option but maybe so

it took me 12 days, but i got it figured out. Mine was coded from the factory without DSCoff as an option! who knows why?

bespoke joke?

good news is our cars have never had launch control used because yes you have to disengage it to use that ..that might be why they tried to get rid of it because they realized their launch control was too damaging or no good.

if you want to know how to get your DSCoff .. www.bpmsport.com

its $250 coding then the $60 OBDII to ethernet cable so $310 and shipping to get your DSC sorted

AND you can get some seriously good euro and convenience coding while youre at it
