Maybe even (through gritted teeth) at the dealer. If you take it to a dealer for diagnostics they should be able to tell you definitely what the problem is.

You can try replacing your VCG's to see if that fixes it, but if it doesn't, and the problem requires removing them again you'll just have wasted time and money in doing it twice.

Where are you located? There are also a number of people on this board that have GT1-type setups. If you're in the Minneapolis area I can check it out for you with my system.
