this happend to me the other day too when i raced a corvette, which is posted here somewhere. one thing i didn't tell you guys is that my adrenaline was rushing so hard that on a second ligth i was going to gun it but in my desire to launch like a rocket i let out the clutch WAY too early and my car died . when i turned back on and got to normal speedi took a fast turn and other then the huge smell of burned clutch, and weird feeling pedal,i heard a noise coming from the back, i think it was the axle or something, but it sounded like ifa metalwas really loose and hitinganother metal, it did that every turn i made (this was after a 2 sec. burn on 2nd before my adrenaline caused "insident"). i got to the place were a was going,i parked and checkedthe backpushed the car to the sides and forwardand i didn't hear anything. afterabout 2 hrs of been parked i turned it back on went home and everything was back to normal.......... this was like1 or 2 months ago, i guess it doen't really mater now because i haven't raced again and i haven't heard anything but i really want to know what it was, i read that there was a TSB on the axle for 06 you think that migth have anything to do with it? any ideas experiences?

hahaha 85 buck shift light... Does it light any different than one for 10 bucks??? LOL JK
Actually it does, it doesn't require a controller or pill to work properly. It seems all the cheap shift lights do and that's why they're so cheap. If you get a $10 one to work, let me know.

Also, for future reference, any time a Mercedes says AMG on the back, don't mess with it...
