Claim Text:
1. A system for a vehicle, the system being operable to: control a driveline of a vehicle to vary an amount of driveline torque coupling between first and second groups of one or more wheels; and in response to a detection of a loss of traction of one or more wheels cause a stability control system to apply a brake torque to a wheel of the first or second groups of one or more wheels in order to induce a corrective yaw to the vehicle to maintain an intended path of travel; wherein the system is configured such that, when the brake torque applied and/or a brake pressure of a braking system employed to apply the brake torque exceeds a non-zero threshold value, the system causes the driveline to reduce the amount of driveline torque coupling between the first and second groups of wheels.
