Lol! Somewhere, lurking in the gear shift monitor program...

If (shiftMonitor == etSportModezWhilstEcoPro) {

/*** Idiot switched shift lever to sport while he is in ecoPro ***/

misFire(rnd(etMaxNoCyls)); /*** scare the bejesus out of this environmentally foolish moron ***/

masterCautionChime();

sleep(60);

misFire(rnd(etMaxNoCyls)); /*** surprise moron again ***/

limpMode(etEnable); /*** punish this half-man-half-idiot with half a car ***/


}
Hahah!

yeah...right man.
But this is not good for a manufacturer.
It doesn't matter in short term, but surely in long term it turns off people.
With all these electronics and sophisticated systems, the resale value will go down drastically because of the high maintenance/repair costs.

Angry

Car just started shaking when I was stopped at a light and a "Drivetrain malfunction" light came on!

From the posts below, it seams to do with "VANOS".

Anyone else now what could be the cause?

I'm bring it to the dealer tomorrow, should I drive it or tow it?
