Important limits

  • Line Lock is for track use only, never public roads.
  • It can cause significant rear-tire wear.
  • A spare tire, parking brake, Auto Hold, adaptive cruise or a system fault can prevent engagement.
If it does not work

Quick checks.

  • ✓If initialization fails, verify the car is level, below 25 mph and not in slippery mode.
  • ✓If engagement fails, stop fully in a forward gear with the wheel straight.
  • ✓If it releases early, check the countdown and whether the brake or parking brake was applied.
