Alright there tough guy you don't need to slap anyone....

Make sure your MFD is displaying the MILES screen.

Turn Key to OFF

Turn Key to ON

Press the R button (right side of cluster) three times while the SRS light is on:



If you pressed the reset button 3 times while the SRS light is on and you were on the MILES screen, your display will display your voltage:



You can scroll through the various screens using the page up / page down controls on the left side of the steering wheel:



You'll see the car model, engine type, oil level (when running), software versions, VIN # and a bunch of other information:



Last page is the ESP DYNAMOMETER TEST screen:



Using the volume +/- controls on the right side of the steering wheel select ON



Start the car and several malfunctions will display since this will disable ESP, ABS, BAS, BPV and several other electronic controls in the car.

When you are done with dyno mode you MUST disable it... otherwise it will always be in dyno mode. Go to the ESP DYNAMOMETER menu and select W. KL15 OFF and then start the car.

Be careful Oxygen. There is always a faster car. I own a old black 2 door Buick from the late 80's turbo'd just like your car that would blow your doors off. But that is a great post about the Dyno mode.

Of course there is and there's no denying it. Any pics of the said Buick? What does it run in the quarter mile?

I am lucky to have the TSM stock block title champion RJC racing that is about 20 min from where I live. his Buick runs a 9.68 with full interior, AC, and is completely street legal. My car Ran 11.2 Two fridays ago At RMR (a local drag strip here in utah) I will post pics of my S55 first (that no one might really care about) and My buick when the Clear coat is done on it. My Name v12 powers refers to anouther project im working on. I am about a quarter of the way through Twin Turboing my E38 750il. And then i will be hunting down a s600 to see how she does. (if I ever get it done)

S55 Dyno Mode

Alright Fellas, please educate me. What is Dyno Mode? I've read about it, but (a) couldn't figure out how to do it -- O2 has fixed that; and (b) couldn't figure out what it actually does. Thanks in advance.

Fully disables traction control, disables ABS, disables BAS, presafe, etc...

Basically it's pretty much raw transfer of power Motor -> Transmission -> Wheels

Doesn’t work on my 2006 S55......key should not be turned to ON, instead only turned to first position (ON is second position)
