    Hey guys. This past week i installed a transmission mount, transmission mount insert, read diff mount (RACE) and rear diff carrier mounts. Just now i slammed 1st-2nd gear and instantly got a fault light for the sport differential. Turned the car on and off and it went away. Never has happened before as well. Any ideas? Im freaking out 2010 audi s5 4.2 v8. 49k miles. All mods states above torqued down to spec.

    Do you know why the diff was replaced if it's new? Is his a reoccurring problem?
