The message pops up for me too. Came on after I changed my rear diff fluid. Comes on every time I turn the car on for about 1 second or less. Then nothing.

Tested it out (tried to do a doughnut) and the car corrects itself. Whip it around a corner WOT and stays put.

Dunno...

It's in the manual though. Tells you how to reset it. Didn't work for me. Then tells you to see the dealer. I still need to go.

Gonna try disconnecting my battery overnight.

Oh...it doesn't show codes on a reader. So it can't be reset with a handheld (iphone).

You may be experiencing a "self test" mode and these things usually happen when the key is cycled. If it goes off in a second or so, then I would not have a concern.

Mine turns out not to be related to disconnecting the steering shaft. My tuner read the code and it has to do with the brake booster sensor or something like that we have not resolved it yet.

Recheck that last post. Although my tuner read a code saying the brake booster was off or whatever I finally got frustrated after a couple weeks of not having it right and took it to the dealer. They had about 4 guys trying to figure it out for 2 hours, the conclusion was the steering position sensor was bad (or at least sending the trouble code) so they ordered a new one and will have it on in a couple days (under warranty).

As a side note I took it to Bandimere speedway this weekend. Could only get 2.12-14 60's and a 12.98. Launches like a slug then comes on real hard. Has to be the T/C and stabilitrak holding it back. This thing should run easy mid to low 12's at 8000 feet. Very frustrating. If I get the stabilitrak shut off we are going to run it Friday night. I'll post the results.
