Actually, the first thing you have to do is buy some good snow tires. Then you can leave the ESP on. It seems to work fine for me and has saved me quite a few times. Just don't put your foot down when trying to move off.

Don't forget to to switch the transmission program mode to "Winter".
You will experiencee excessive wheelspin on starts if you leave it in summer mode!<br>

Winter mode allows the transmission to start in 2nd gear.
