If I had some extra cash lying around, I'd be interested, but I gotta get my tranny fixed.
Sounds like limp mode to me. You only got codes for TCS?

nope not the fuel pump hooked up a fuel gauge and had no fuel pressure to it when trying to crank it so switched the fuel pump but still no start ....took it to the stealership we'll see hopefully tom.
