I did upgrade my rear sway bar with a MINI Madness 22mm Adjustable Rear Sway Bar and have it on the most aggressive setting. I know exactly that place where you drift and the DCS doesn't kick in. It's a beautiful thing since all the wheels are still going the same speed the DCS doesn't see a problem.

I'm eager to try the same curve on my Countryman that should be here in the next week or two. I'm wondering what All4 will do on curves like that.

22mm rear sway bar at full setting! Sounds like oversteer bias in handling. A bit too aggressive for my tastes.

(Although, as I'm writing this, it occurs to me that maybe I've not bee trying hard enough... )
