On an unrelated issue, my "Check Stabilitrack" light has been coming on consistently when I am at the track (and never when I am away from the track), but it is likely because of RFI. Pulling the codes showed a range of communication errors. I had thought that it was because of my OBD dongle, but driving around at home for weeks with the OBD dongle plugged in did not reproduce problem. Then once when I was at VIR I parked the car the night before, all fine. When I turned the car on in the morning and before I had even put it in gear, the Check Stabilitrack light came on - so clearly not because of anything I had done. I think there are so many custom electronics OBD devices in a crowded paddock area that other people's devices are creating RFI. There's a TSB out for OBD dongle devices causing RFI and affecting people's communication. Funny that it can be other people's devices because it sure wasn't mine that one time.
OK, I believe you are on the right track with something being broken. But, I have to ask, I know you have concerns, but with all the road course and AutoX experience and the mods on the car, Why do you still run with the nannies on? You have the experience, you must be making the system overwork. Just go to competitive mode every time you are at the track.
