Odd things lately...

My car has been acting weird since yesterday.

Twice, on the way home, and when accelerating from a rolling stop (in traffic or after slowing down on a corner) pressing on the gas would do nothing for a few seconds (and what feels like an eternity in such situations). Almost as if the pedal is disconnected, there is no rev whatsoever. It then resumes. DS or M mode only.

And this morning, i stopped by for breakfast and turned the car off. 5 minutes later i came back and the screen is on (car is off).

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Good idea. I wonder what would've changed though, corrosion on some grounding points? I have a kit on the car, but never had trouble with it since it was installed last year.

I'd take off the grounding kit. I've never seen any solid evidence they do any good. I had one on a car a couple of years ago and it was all placebo.

If you still have issues after you've taken it off, at least you can bring it in for warranty and not worry about them denying it for any reason.

Thanks. I actually got something good out of it, but yes i'll try taking it off and see what happens.

Did removing it solve your issues?
