    Just joined up with my '06 hyper blue S. Loved the car up until yesterday when it went to limp home mode. Codes 1688 and 1070. Now here to figure out what the cause might be. Any suggestions for possible service alternatives in the Detroit/Ann Arbor, MI area are appreciated. Cheers!

    Call Chad at Detroit Tuned. He's listed in the sponsor section of MA.

    Welcome to M/A. :)

    Not sure what the 1070 code is related to but the 1688 has to do with airflow (MAF or BPV). From what I have seen online it's often related to a crank-pulley damper coming apart.
