Just so everyone here knows... I have NO intention of dumping this vehicle. I think It can be fixed with the help of you fine people here. I'll check with my insurance agent. That would be too good to be true.

yes... At first I took it to have the transmission checked since it was not shifting. The transmission was good and he ran codes. It looked like EVERYTHING was bad. Then I do a battery negative reset and they are all gone. I had full diagnostic done and the mechanic described the issue about...

I was hopeful that you were correct but alas the problem has returned after about a week. My GF can unhook the battery and it goes away for another day or so.

I have a 09 200 Series that has been solid until recently. I assumed it was a transmission problem as it was not shifting but the entire dash went nuts. The transmission checked out fine. When he ran some tests it went off like a slot machine otherwise. All at once several failures. The screen...
