    It's usually the yellow connector under the seat. You can try unplugging and replugging it. Or adding a zip tie to hold it together really tight. Worst case, people cut out the yellow connector and solder or crimp the wires together.

    Turn down the bass, man!

    To the other question, manual swap was pretty easy I think. Very small wiring changes, and an easy recode in the various modules (AEB may require an actual ECU swap, though). Everything else just bolts right up.

    its funny because i just did everything you said about unplugging and replugging it, and now i see you're comment loll

    but i forgot this is not like a check engine you must clear the code so im stepping outside to do it , hoping it was the issue

    ill report back

    the bass is in.....sane lol thats part of a reason why my car is heavier, 300+- heavier ... but wellll worth it if you ask me

    what you're saying is motivating me on doing it , this tranny is taking a beating when im wot , car pulls preaty hard now , more then its suppose to if you ask me , i literally destroy cars with 200hp and + , tsx is not a match at all i tried with my friends & if i brake gaz a little before starting line ill eat him in the first 60 ft preaty hard , then just pull away when hitting 2e &3e but 4 & 5 sucks for a reason but boost shows ok .. not a high way car for shit ... and cant seam to figure out why becaust low gears it pulls more then it should

    If you put a manual in, you'll probably not be jumping off the line as hard as you describe now. Tiptronic works pretty nice when you torque-load the converter and it's 1-2 shift is smooth and fast. The 5-speed is a bit of work to make it go fast. You have to have an upgraded clutch, and then launch it hard and stuff. There is no torque multiplication like the tiptronic has. They like to bog out on launch unless you launch at 5 grand.

    Tit for Tat, it's sad to say but the tiptronic is probably faster in a heads up drag race. Extra torque on launch and you get to keep all the boost between gears. It's boring, though. You just hit the pedal and sit there. lol
