What's MDM?

Not sure what transmission you have although you can start in 2nd gear with manual or DCT. With DCT, toggle into sequential mode and then shift into 2nd gear. You can do this at a stop.

MDM = M Dynamic Mode. This is a less intrusive version of the stability control system, however the North American version does not reduce the "intrusiveness" nearly as much as the European version. I don't think in snow MDM is a big deal either way. if you need some wheel spin, you need to turn traction control completely off, especially on North American cars.
