If you get it done at some kind of local shop, make sure they will stamp your book. It helps when you go to sell the car one day to get that AMG.

3k miles to go before I bring it in at 60k.

but my FSS light is starting to go negative now and it flashes on alot longer when I start up the engine... blinks for like 10 secs or something. annoying.

how do I reset the FSS light? I did what it said in the manual, but it wasnt reseting.

turn key position to 2
press 0 twice
turn key position to 0
turn key position to 2 while press and hold 0.
hold 0 for 10 secs till beep signal comes on. (no beep btw)
release and fss gets reset. (doesnt for me)
