This forum is a wealth of great knowledge. Thanks Guys.

Here is the sequence just in case anyone is interested.

1. Turn the ignition key to the on (not start) position.

2. Press the gas pedal to the floor and hold for five seconds.

3. Turn the key to the "off" position (don't remove the key), then release the gas pedal.

4. Wait at least two minutes for ECU to reset.

Enjoy!!!!

I will try this out. Do you have a close-up on those rims? I would like to see one.

BTW- What a coincidence, you drive a SL55, and have 55 posts on here! LOL.
