So today I found the time to go out and do a couple of more "serious" tweaks other than messing with the DRLs brightness all the time.

I first removed the Torque limiter which eliminates TCS kicking in in the lower gears (despite it being switched off in theory - there's a whole thread about it at GolfMK7 for anyone interested) Worth noting that upon disable, a couple of yellow warning lights ( think it was the ABS and ESP and/or engine) started flashing for 5-10 seconds until they turned off by themselves.

While I was at it, I also changed the Start Stop voltage limit to 12 to get rid of that silly system. Then I started the car, drove a few meters to see if any fault would show up on the dash but all seemed good. Checked the values after switching off/on again and they had all been saved as they should.

However doing a scan before shutting everything down I got a Transmission Control Module error:

P173400 - Starter release from the selector lever sensor system
Intermittent



My question is whether that could be related to the values changed or it was a coincidence it showed up now? And more importantly is it any serious error I should worry about or one of the random ones that can be ignored. I cleared it but haven't driven the car after that to see if it'll come back.

Last scan was just 2 days and 100km ago. The car is a brand new Clubsport with 1200km on the clock. All tweaks were done with OBDEleven.
