Where you been typeing your messsages is the standard editor. Full editor is a editor mode that has more options, including file attachments. look below I marked the button to get into the Full editor. Full editor is more like a word processor.

Way cool ! Thanks !
I'll give that a try.

More fun with lights and codes. When I just had the CEL cleared there was another code: No DTC definition found. Consult service manual.
The CEL has stayed off so far.
Also I have noticed that when I punch it enough to engage the turbo, the ABS light comes on. Only time that light comes on.

I think that's it.......for now

Mucho Gracias !

The P80s are notorious for cracked solder joints at the ABS connector.

I an thinking:
When you step down the engine torque moves the ABS harness, opening solder cracks on the PC board at the ABS connector.

Yes Rick that sounds about right. I noticed that it seems to have more to do with the sudden movement, either by the turbo kicking in or the tranny down shifting. I think I saw a post about having the ABS module repaired but I'm not sure.

Neat ! Thanks ! I guess there goes another $ 100 + but if it solves the problem it's a deal

Just wanted to say " Thanks for everybody responses ! ". I've been on other forums where you feel like your alone in a field of crickets.

I would " Thank " formally so it would go to your signatures but guess what ? I can't figure that bit out either

Truly appreciate all your help,

Paul
