Big trouble with 2020 Jimny

On the UK version you can turn the ESP off. Does your version have the same facility and if so, have you tried it?

I don't think you can turn it off. I found it to be a pain at harvest in the fields, as it wouldn't let you wheelspin in 2wd, forcing you to use 4wd, even though you didn't need it.

We've never had this issue on our 2020 Jimny, although l did see it being demonstrated on a Youtube video somewhere.

Have you thought about driving it a bit slower? "60kph round bumpy corners" isn't something l would normally recommend in a Jimny.

Similar to my Defender, it has to be driven with respect for the type of vehicle that it is.

No issues with my 2019 SZ5. I drive a variety of roads including track and multi lane highways at an indicated 85+ mph.  Regularly drive it like I stole it on B roads. Hasn’t missed a beat.

Just to even things up.

If you are getting wheel spin in 2WD , maybe you should be in 4WD!

Can the ESP be disabled maybe by removing a fuse?

Or even re programmed by the dealer.
