E55 AMG
Need help video inside

Hey everyone,
So I have a 04 e55. When I go WOT my car will not upshift in any gear, even when I click the paddles on steering wheel or shifter, in video I click it around 5 times as you can see and won't shift untill rpms drop(I never let off the throttle in the video). When I'm not a wot it drives perfectly fine has no shifting issues, anyone have any ideas?

(I've changed the plug that goes bad and the conductor plate)

Does it do the same thing in M mode? What's with the ESP warning?

Does it in every mode, and esp came on because the delay in shift does it every time when it hangs in gear too long

ESP is throwing a code. Scan and see if there are any codes...active or pending. The car knows what's wrong.

See previous post I just added in the code. This code only pops up on WOT. Never driving with 1/2 or even 3/4 throttle

Do you have a Pedal Box or Sprint Booster that may be sending bad throttle position signals? Maybe the electronics in the gas pedal itself are bad?
