Some problems with APS TT !!!
While driving my car I noticed the following;
1. the APS overflow coolant tank is spitting coolant when driving the car hard. and when I park the car for like 3 hour I find the tank empty!
2. there is a slight white smoke coming from the exhaust when shifting at low and mid range rpms. I couldnt notice the smoke, my friend who was driving behind me did.
3. my dash board is like a christmas tree. when I start the car the airbag starts falshing and stays like this. when I start driving the car the VDC and SLIP lights come on.
what could cause the problems above?

Sounds like a bad install to me.
1. They need to bleed all the air out of the cooling system.
2. They overfilled the oil.
3. They didn't align the steering column correctly.
Did they read the instructions at ALL?

I agree with above posts.
1. Air in cooling system or worst case is blown headgaskets.
2. Possibly burning some oil. The APS kit is sensitive to that.
3. Steering column u-joint wasnt put on right.

For anything else I fully agree with the previous post
sounds like a blown headgasket on the coolant being over flowed. we werent sure at first either until i noticed water in the oil...
change your oil immediately and see if there is ANY milky white looking sludge in the oil, if so, dont drive the car at all cause you could possibly destroy some bearings inside the engine
