Here is a link to change the switch - the car starts with it off, but pushing it will turn it on. I'm not sure this will work for an E46, as I believe you have to hold the switch down for 5 seconds, but it's a starting point.

DSC will automatically turn on when it feels the wheels begin to slip and take away power, even if the button is turned off. i want to get rid of the system because im going to use my car on the track....and i dont want DSC to kick in when im exiting a turn or what not..........so still looking for some help to get rid of DSC!?!?!?!?!?!
Sorry, but that's not correct.
I'm speaking from experience, since I run SCCA Autocross with both an E46 330cic and E36 325i. When you press the DSC button, it is turned off until you stop the engine. It does not kick back in. For E46s that have DBC (Dynamic Braking Control) you hold the DSC button down for 5 seconds, then BOTH DSC and DBC are disabled.
If your car has DBC (I don't know what year that started) then that could be your problem.
The only thing that you cannot turn off is ABS, but there is no reason to turn that off.
