Suspension Control Module?
Long story short: Lost access to competitive mode and after some helpful digging in this forum we found it was likely related to a stored code of loss of communication between the ecm and ebm. Connecting it to a tech 2 did indeed reveal this code. It was cleared and after restarting the car we could access competitive mode and its launch control once again!
However, we did noticed that the Suspension Control Module had a "No communication" status. Anyone knows what this controls / where to look for it / how to fix or if it is normal (just guessing since the car does NOT have magnetic ride)?
The car is an A6 Z51 2014
Thanks

if you don't have MSRC then its possible that status is normal since you don't have
the MSRC controller. its a large module located under the drivers side fender,
forward of the door and rearward of the wheel. the car in the pic doesn't have MSRC,
but if it did the module would be located at the red circle.
This might be Jag's car, if so he gets credit for the pic.

if you don't have the MSRC option it definitely wont be there, don't pull off the fender
for no reason. if youre lucky enough to have access to a Tech2 just connect
it to another non-MSRC C7 and see if the module status is the same.
