Guys, I just heard that those pics were from a "fuel leak" and some other things, but not from a tranny failure:D

Something is wrong with the link, copy the one on nagtroc.org. I keeps rerouting me.

Yeah not a big deal, would suck if this has to be done to mine at any point though

How do you even use the launch control system??

Turn VDC off, turn the transmission/damping switch to R (the 3 R's). Left foot on brake, right foot on and go..in a nutshell.

And shift fast!

But by holding the brake, wouldn't that cause premature wear and stress on the transmission? I mean, does the computer know that the user is trying to use the launch mode, thereby not engaging the auto clutch?

Sounds more like powerbraking, than launch control to me
