I was in third gear WOT and the PCM failure and ABS failure lights came on, pulled over restarted and no problems w/ 30+ mis. of hard driving. Also the rear spoiler wont come down one side seems stuck and the other is 1/4 way down, switch wont work?? Thanks.

Good luck on the spoiler.. I just pulled the fuse. I've had problems with it before, had to replace the hydraulics on one side.

But before you waste your money, there is a thread on bleeding the hydraulics. If you leave your car siting for awhile (mine sat for 2 months) with the spoiler in the up position, it tends to decrease pressure and hence the thing wont go up all the way anymore.

Oh.. and try some WD40 as it seemed to work on the passenger side. But my driver side has no pressure to go up all the way.

MechanicalEng is infamous around these parts
yes, the stock boost is supposed to be .7 - .9. I have the same issue with the PSM/ABS light coming on, I will take the car back to the dealer in a couple of days to get it resolved. The spoiler issue is a common problem with these cars, unfortunately it is an expensive item to replace. Do a search on the forum, I know that someone here took it apart and figured a way to fix it..
Good luck

with a little force you can push the stuborn side down with your hands. Just lube up both pistons with WD40 first. Once it's all the way down. Try your switch again. Should work fine.

That won't work Sherlock. If one side's up and the other side's down, then the beer and food will just slide right off, duh! Sorry OP. When Paulie wiggles out of his straight jacket, he goes right to 6 Speed.
