I don't believe VDC cuts fuel. It basically applies the brakes where needed.

^^^ You describe it well.

The point I tried to (poorly) make was that I don't think fuel is actually being cut off like the OP was asking about. It's not like redlining. I think VDC just affects power delivery. But maybe that does involved fuel being cut? I dunno.

By backing off the throttle. Remember, its drive by wire. Throttle is actually remotely controlled by the ECU.

It does NOT cut fuel. Shutting off the engine would hardly contribute to vehicle stability.

VDC cuts power when it detects a "slippage". thats why you should turn it off ...and drift that bi@tch

Slippage is only one condition that it responds to. It also corrects oversteer and understeer.

"Vehicle Dynamic Control* is an advanced system designed to help you stay on your steered path. If your vehicle begins to oversteer (fishtail) or understeer (plow forward), VDC can reduce engine output and/or apply appropriate brake pressure to specific wheels."
