Btw the SSS doesn't like to be driven slowly and smoothly coz it will throw a false check engine light! I has happened to mine twice now, first when I drove it to measure the best FC, then last week when my son drove it cruising on the highway at only around 80-90kph. It never happens if I whack the crap out of it!
O2 sensor error?

Nope, it's common with this car. I've seen it happening often to others even in the European forum/fb club, all exactly the same symptom and error code. Just need to clear it again.

Quietly disturbing because you know you have a fast car, paying for a fast car, but is driving it slow where it isn't terribly exciting
I guess speed is relative. Fast can also be the acceleration. You don't need to go for insane top speed, actually that is really boring. I drove on the Autobahn and it was...relaxing because people keep a safe distance and when you are charging from the rear they just give way.

No drama no fuss.

But for me I really need power on demand.

True also, now VR with stiffer suspension is not so stable at high speed if the road is not flat. A lot of jolting up and down. The older slightly softer suspension seems to damp the jolts giving a more stable ride.....

need to swap 1 step softer spring and turn down the damping knob softer :biggrin:



drive fast car slow i prefer... not THAT SLOW....just in relaxed manner.... coz if i need to chase time or something, just speed up with ease... :driver:
