when you put the car in tiptronic mode there is a light that is supposed to light up telling me what gear i am in and it doesnt light up. but witht the gear light the main strip with the miles and trip on it also dont light up? but sometimes it will turn on for a little bit and then just shut off after i hit a bump or something so i figured it had to be a loose wire

Hi tbrady3185,

It could be a loose wire, loose bulb connectors or a bad bulb that intermittently works when bumped.
