Thanks for the response. I've checked the earth strap forgot to mention it. I've done a search, noted that in more than 90% of the cases the guys do a controller change with no improvement. I think the only thing i haven't tried was really giving it a solid launch and see if the scan doesn't...
Hi all,
Here's my situation. Narrowed down the issue and realized I have a haldex that's acting up.

Model: s3 2002 (All the way in south africa)
Hi Guys,
I really need some help.

Symtoms:
No smoke on startup, I don't see...
