has anyone felt that little choke?

for some reason, my TL-S makes a little noise everytime after it moves forward slightly on D4 from Park. Does anyone know what's going on?
thank you.

I've heard that the brief humming sound is the ABS initializing/performing a self-test. It happens every time after starting up the car. -- I wish there was something written in the manual to indicate this though.

Yee,

Do you have a pic of your "M5" spoiler?? I like flat mount spoilers more than factory ones. But I am not willing to drill holes on the trunk for the spoiler. Does the one you have need holes drilled on the trunk to mount??
