Slowly figuring out all the bells and whistles on this thing, up to the chassis control feature. I realize that what the manual says and what is really on/in car aren't the same, such as the green AWD light being displayed on the dash (nope, not there no matter what manual says, even with AWD Lock). So, on my latest 350 mile road trip, I put the Chassis Control display on center console and drove, expecting to see the grid curve when turning, taking curves at highway speeds, something, as shown in manual. Even took some exit/entrance ramps curves (some 360 degrees) at much higher than posted speeds. Car handled fine, but no indication on display, grid always remained straight. The only time I ever noticed anything was one time, traveling straight line at about 70 mph, hit a rough patch job on highway around a railroad track crossing. Display momentarily displayed a blue glow underneath the image of the car on the grid. I assume that meant it did something to smooth out ride?

Is this all the chassis control does, do I not have something set right (I have every available check box on various center display turned on). Or should I be expecting more?

The blue glow was probably the Active Ride Control activating, which utilizes ABS to help smooth out bumps when traveling above 25MPH.

I find the Chassis Control screen to be rather useless because I usually have my eyes to the road when obstacles or challenges come my way that would activate any of the features that would typically come on and light up the Chassis Control screen. I just disabled it on my car through the Settings menu because it's rather useless to me.
