Greetings all!! I have owned my beautiful 2005 S Type R for over 13 years now. She has about 100k miles. I came to this forum several years ago and found the secret to adjust the drooping headlamp issue which I was able to repair myself. Now the poor girl has an electrical issue that has my mechanic perplexed. Something in the entertainment module causes the electrical system to overload which then results in the gas gauge failing, the doors to lock randomly, prevents the trunk from opening (can't unlock) while giving a code that says there is something wrong with the fuel pumps. She has been in the shop since August (yes - 9 months!) She actually runs beautifully (the fuel pumps replaced numerous times) except for this quirk. I really don't want to give up on her but what can I do?
