Quote: you had the update from MB then had RENNtech reprogram your ECU?
Absolutely. We will see how she runs this weekend. I also had a Renntech CF airbox put on as well as a Kleemann I/C pump upgrade. If this car doesn't run in the mid to high 11s now I think I will sell it..

Mine actually had this update done some time the past couple of weeks, but it hasn't rectified my check engine lights lol. They thought they finally found it.

The funny thing is this: Remember when members had cars that stalled in heat or lunged? Well I complained about that. They flashed the ECU with new software and since then Ive had these check engine lights. GREAT FIX, right?

I just hope for everyone else that this flash to the new software does not result in the same trouble I've encountered.

I am going to wait on this recall and tell them I do not want it when it goes in for service next. I wonder if they will let me do this.

I'd rather have it fixed if the engine light comes on assuming there is no catastrophic failure risk.
