Drove into my garage tonight after 20min drive home from work and "S" mode
has a warning/ no rev matching...I guess I'll add this to my call tomorrow to the dealer!

That sucks, let us know how it turns out with the dealer. Best of luck.

arcticreaver · 03-13-2009, 06:48 PM

That looks like the warning for the door being open. S mode is in the center.
you may have already tried this but hold down the S mode button for 5 seconds, and then do it again several times, it may need to re-set.
When it is on the light will stay lit in the center speedo under the Rev indicator.

Another day, another problem - you certainly seem to be having more than your fair share of troubles, sir. I sympathise.

Just small stupid stuff! Once I step on the gas pedal I forget for a moment!

I looked it up and that symbol was for the "s" function. It comes on when I first start and leave,,,goes away and the revs kick in after warm up and driving...then once I stop driving (pull into garage) it comes back on. Kind of like when a connection is loose. They said to drop off Tuesday morning which fine by me!

Figured it was nothing big. But after spending that much on a new car I would be worried too

Demon Z · 03-15-2009, 01:42 AM

If I'm not mistaken, that light comes on when you turn off vdc/tcs.

vdc one is on the tachometer.

Demon Z · 03-15-2009, 02:02 AM

Guess I'm mistaken. My bad.

Quick update: Bottom Line, I'm a Dumb@@s! I rechecked what I looked up in the book and it does show that symbol, but only in the LCD window between the fuel and temp LEDs. It also will say "S-MODE" to let you know there is a malfunction!!
My apologies to all!
Did I mention that the car seems to be breaking in nicely? LOL
