I literally had these exact issues today with my E. FBO with RaceIQ ECU and TCU tune. I had just finished the current setup a few days before it started snowing last year. When I got the car out this year, it always had this slight blip in power after each shift plus, I would have random codes pop up occasionally. Maybe every 2-3 drives over a span of a couple months. Codes were never related to each other and completely random. Today, after starting the car, it showed the "battery convenience" message. No battery light. First, ABS flashed a little, then was permanent. Every other system until the very end, when the car was about to shit itself, the battery light pops on. Thankfully, I had my brand new warranty battery in the trunk and a small set of tools. Absolutely crazy.
Tried the Autozone alternators burned 2 of them . They give voltage spikes , finally went with dealer alternator no issues , these cars are sensitive . Great video 👍
Great content. What led parking lights are you using and how has been the reliability of the led parking lights as naturally w211 come with halogen parking lights?
I bought a kit off of Ebay. It's a whole kit that converts all of your lights to led. Included all interior lights. Head lights and tail lights excluded. All the led lights have built in resistors. The kit was around 60 dollars. Im really happy with the kit.
Love your videos, I have a question regarding your torque converter bushing change. I am upgrading my torque converter in my e55, and I am wanting to change my torque converter bushing while I am in there. Now, mine is not spun or damaged, so how did you pull yours? or did it come out with your TC? Thanks.

When I pulled my TC out the bushing fell out. But if I were to be replacing my TC I would definitely replace it.
Great information. Now I'm wondering if my other car has that problem. What wheels do you have on there btw?
E63 wheels
