    Last weekend I took the car out for about a 100 mile drive, had no issues.

    This morning I fired it up, and immediately after starting it showed 3 CEL's:

    a) e-diff (amber)
    b) steering wheel switch / low grip mode (it was in sport mode)
    c) suspension failure

    After double checking the CEL icons in the owners manual, I played with the steering wheel switch a little and turned off CST and then put it back to sport mode. The e-diff and steering wheel switch CEL went away. The suspension failure CEL is still there.

    I drove it to work, and it seems fine.. there isn't any visible or noticeable change in the suspension behavior.

    Should I just clear all the codes and see if they come back? What makes me nervous is getting all of them at once when starting the car up, after driving it for awhile with no issues.

    Damn italian electronics.... :D

    Before resetting the ECU's, I would first find out the original error codes and root cause and make sure there is nothing serious. It's highly probable that you had an electronic issue. Did you check out the battery voltage ? This can also create many issues with the ECU's.

    Ahh, great point. I'll check the battery voltage this afternoon. Thanks!
