[QUOTE="bien335, post: 2582734, member: 78812"] That is the beauty of the ABS system. Not only it enables you to control the car in extreme situations by preventing tyre lock, it can also function the other way round, since it has the ability to control any individual wheel. TCS is the extension of ABS. Without ABS, TCS will not function. You see many fancy 3-letter acronyms in the market, but all of them have one core. ABS. ABS and TCS stop a wheel from slipping in a straight line, but when it comes to curves, you need something else, a stability assist system. From ABS, you get TCS, BA (Brake assist), ESP, DSC, DTC, any many more. Be it in mechanical form, or electronic. The software that governs the system is what makes each system unique. And effective. No two systems are alike, unless the car manufacturers employ a single company, namely Bosch. But nowadays, the ESP system is more intelligent, by controlling the amount of power sent to the wheels, electronically, by employing clever diffs and cutting power or adding more power to any wheel. ABS is then left to the role of merely preventing the wheels from locking up and also brake any individual wheel when things go wary, or when you run out of skill. Here, watch this video.
